I had been following the thread about it at the time and was talking with it's new owner about a Take Down handle.
In our conversation I had asked about it and we soon made a deal for this bow.
I knew it was special and I suspected it to be an EXP bow.
I had been on the fence about removing the rest of the camo paint. It was a hard decision....Believe me!
The purist in me said leave it be.
20% of the paint had already been removed was my other thought.
I know there are fellow collectors who felt that I should leave it be and I completely understand them. Then there are other collectors who say to remove the rest of the paint.
I slept on it for awhile.
This decision was hard!!!!!!
Seeing so much of the paint already removed and the solid black riser with the brown glass so exposed, I decided to remove the rest of the camo.
She looks beautiful.
I had bowdoc put a fresh coat of varnish and rewrite the factory serial #.
Here she is reborn, now pulling 55#.
......actually bowdoc weighed it and it's somewhere between 55 and 56#.
Not bad for a 46 year old "over the counter" Bear.
