I like the old Bears!! I grew up with them...
However, I also have a few "custom" bows. I never use them, They haven't been strung up in years.
I have a few old 60's Grizzlys, and a pair of 50# 1972 Grizzlys than Tyler & I hunt with. I have always wanted a Kodiak T/D, but never bought one...
I have no issues whatsoever, with buying a new Bear bow!!!!! Kudos to Bear Archery for bringing back the old classics, and continueing to manufacture a fine line of "production" Traditional Bows!!! Perhaps, one day, Bear may again be the Legendary Company they once were... But, that will only happen if folks buy their bows.
My next bow, will be the Bear "Compass Kodiak" TakeDown,(new,of course)that I have always wanted!!!!!
What will yours be???
