I don't think they are Bear. The silkscreen doesn't look correct to me either.

I am a former owner of these limbs. I bought and then sold them on the auction site. I haven't checked to see if this is the person I sold them to.

They did shoot well, and were 65# on a B-riser I think? I partially refinished them and put the repro decals on.

The fadeout wedges were modified, and the tips were narrowed. I cleaned them up as the edges were rough.

I never was sure of there origin, they are blue tips, which would date them at 75 or 76, however the maple limb cores are not futurewood, just plain maple. The wedge is black pheonolic. The length was I believe a #2, or 62" on a B riser. The clear maple and black phenolic wedge would date as Gainesville late 70's or early 80's, but they only made series 1 lenght I believe. So, who knows.

With the recent proto type limbs on some sites, that may be what these were. I say "maybe." As is they are a severely modified set, however, they did shoot well and were in usable shape when I owned them.

I bought them in the modified state.
