Bear TD serial # TDH 319

[Ryman Cat]

Can someone date this Bear TD for me I just picked up a wood  Bear B riser with 2 sets of limbs.

The heavier set of limbs written TDL-166
60" 55 Gainsville stamped in gold on decals.

Thank you so much the owner said it was a 70's but I have no idea.

is there another number on the handle ? TDH 319 would be handle number 319 but they normaly had another # like 07 08 09 something like that ? bd

A picture would clear it up fast.  Speaking of Bear risers  Bowdoc....you have any to be shipped ?

[Ryman Cat]

No other numbers Doc. I wouldn't be able to show the serial # it is so faint from the grip area rubbed off that I had to turn the riser sideways in the light with my 1.00 store mag. glasses to see with a Magnifier glass also a slight impression that this was the number. When I first got the bow I said the serial # wasn't there, then I got the idea let me inspect closer with magnifiers and behold I found it.

I will take a picture of the bow and post it.

Thanks guys what else do you need me to show so we can try to ID this.

I figured the 319 was the bow number and the TD was the take down but what would that H mean?

If Ks stated in early 70's could this be considered before the K and be a type I maybe?

To much wishfull thinking I have a gem until a gemologist determines and you gyus are the gemologists.

TDH are the bows made in the 2000's  two color riser,gray and a lighter color wood.

TDH is 96-97 I believe.
