A year ago or so, someone had a Signature on the fleabay with a starting price of $6500. I don't believe it ever sold. The bow was a left over at the Bear plant and I don't think it had a serial number. seems a couple have sold ove rhte last few year on bbay for around $4500.
The longbow limbs were only made one year, maybe worth about $400.

The last Signature TD I saw up for auction in Europe did not even reach the $2000 mark. I dont remember if it had been shot once or twice but I think it was in as new condition, also being 50#. If it had had 60# or 65# to it, I guess it would be sitting in my rack now. And yes - of course - I would shoot it as often as I could    :smileystooges:  

Felix, I think your friend is nuts! If he is asking that kind of money dont even bother with sending pics. I am also sorry to say, there is no LH riser available in my vicinity.

Does anyone know where the journal is today in which Frank Scott kept track of the Signature TD's?

The bow was bought from Roberto Chizzoli I told me directly from Fred,when they hunted together, and Roberto was a dealer for Italy at that time. Could it be true?

I wanted to hunt with mine so I drilled some holes for quiver bushings and then drilled some holes for a sight. I messed these holes up so I had to drill some more sight holes.

Hi Moose,

I thought you may have it. However, I saw 'it' up for auction in 2007 or something. The description said it was the real thing and I had no doubts about it, knowing that sellers background. It was a hand written journal.

Did Mr. Scott kept double notes?

Falk I'm Not sure what was on **** for sale. Mine is a ledger log to keep track of these bows as they were sold and some returned..

I'll have to dig the list out and see who has or had #66 and if it changed hands at all.
