"MY" Bear A Mag

Here are a few pictures and details of "MY" Bear A Mag T/D. I wanted a 58" T/D so I built my own #2 limbs. The limbs pictured are #58 at my 26" draw. I wanted to put my personal touch on this project so I designed my own limb logo "borrowing" from the Bear design. I contacted Al and got them printed. I wasn't happy with where the factory Bear quiver sat on the bow so I used parts from three Bear quivers to make my own. I used the long four arrow quiver that was popular on compounds. I shortened it 2 1/4". I made new brackets to attached the hood and tack welded them to the wire frame. I used the bottom section from a small four arrow quiver. I them used a short spring arm from a Bear eight arrow quiver. I had to re-bend and shortened the section of the spring arm where it mounted to the quiver frame. I also had to remove and remount the small brackets that are used to attach the spring arm to the frame. The bow is FAST and QUIET! I really enjoyed designing and building all the tooling and fixtures to complete this project. I will be hunting with this one this deer season. I already have a "new" project in mind. It may be next spring before I get to it, but it will be worth the wait. Stay tuned! Thanks for looking.

Have you thought of taking orders for a set of limbs?
