Got my 'zebrawood Grizz back
« on: September 22, 2013, 01:36:00 PM »
I bought this years ago, and didn't shoot it much. I met an older gentleman a few years ago who without knowing I had one, told me all about his first bow (a zebrawood grizz ).

With my limited knowledge I refinished the bow and presented it to him with a leathertop tape-on as a gift. He loved it.

I got a call last night from him, he has shoulder problems and can't shoot anymore. He wanted me to take the bow back and hunt with it like

Great looking bow!  I have a '65 zebra griz that I hope to get a little blood on over the next few weeks.  They are great shooters.
