All these posts are fabulous, thanks for feeding the addiction. 
I have 3 TDs, a collection of misc limbs & draw #'s; the options are so fun.
***Question for Varmint et al.: 1st, BTW, well done w/ the camera in corn stalk,
My inquiry is about hearing, and possibly seeing in your photo, the practice of adding padding to string below end loops.
If this is the case, I'm interested in the how-to (I'm assuming this helps with limb slap & silencing).
Thanks in advance!

I rapidly became a fan after trading for my 1st Bear T/D earlier this year. I'll try to get some photos up later (that'll give me an excuse to try it out).

Not exactly the "action" shots that you were probably looking for, but these are the ones that I got that helped convince me to swap for it.

Rob sent you a PM
It's really simple. Just don't take those borderline shots. Tomorrow is another day.

John
You posted a thumbnail picture, which is fine.

After you select your picture from your PC or phone, just to the right of the little window where the picture name appears, click ( Insert Attachment 1 ). That will make the picture full size in your post.

John, you are doing well.

A full size picture is just one more step away, by clicking ( insert attachment 1 ), After you select the picture you want.

Any of you guys know how to date old bear bows?

I bought mine new in 1971 or so, just can't remember.

C handle 2000 range serial numbers with gold script, 1971 or 1972. Given it's very low 2000, my guess 1971.
