How rare is a Bear T/D with yew limbs
« on: June 15, 2009, 11:10:00 PM »
Hello guys, I was talking with a friend of mine who went to a yard sale the other day who picked up a few old Bear bows.. Well any ways the guy who was selling them went and showed my friend Two Bear T/D still in the wood bow that have never been shot.. My friend said that they where made with Yew wood limb. As for the year I do not know.. Has any one or dose any one know if thses bows are rare.. they are T/D bows... any help or pics would be great.. My friend said as well there was some gold leaf or gold leaf work done.........

Guys any help would be great....

Signature TDs from 1982 I think.  Worth several grand each if they are what he says.

Do a search on Signature TDs Cody, there have been several threads recently about them.
