Well, I haven't had much time to hunt so far... Tyler's Football team is doing VERY WELL!!! However, The late night practices & weekend games have the poor kid (& ME) EXHAUSTED!!! LMAO!

Good thing is, I have been shooting my new Two Tone "A" handle EVERY DAY!!!!! Now Folks... This is an EXTREMELY rare fore me!!! As some of you well know, Old Woodchucker is a VERY superstitious Indian!!!!! Going back to my old compound days, MANY years ago, I'd go out to practice & have one of those BAD days... "It CAN'T be me??? I was busting nocks YESTERDAY!!! SO... I'd fiddle with the sights & soon my bow was as screwed up as ever!!! Then, I tossed the sights... Nothing to screw around with & screw up, RIGHT????? WRONG!!!!! What happened was, my confidence would be SEVERELY shaken!!! I go out & miss shot after "dead nuts" shot, at Deer all season!!! When I got back into "Traditional" Bowhunting about 20 years ago, I solved the problem. Deer Season opened..... Practice STOPPED!!!!! I'd always carry a blunt or Judo in my quiver for stumps or squirrels, but serious "out back" target practice, was put on hold. Hey, after all... I was "In there" all year!!! Think what you may, it worked for me.

Well My Friends, This year is "different".....

With my best friend & hunting buddy "busy" and a brand new bow on the rack, "The Itch" just needs to be scratched. So every day, I take my new "A" handle T/D out to play!!! Poor "Buddy the Button Buck" is looking PRETTY SAD!!! (OK so his horns fell off... They were too big for his head & they made him look STUPID!!!) EVERY shot, is in the deer target, and most of them are right in the boiler-room!!!!! Needless to say, when the time comes, I'm READY!!!!!

My confidence has NEVER been this high before!!!!!

I've been using a green stripe for most of the season but I just picked up a pair of #2 white tip limbs that make a 58", 48# bow on my A two-tone handle. This is a very sweet setup and shoots like a dream. The green stripe is going back on the wall for a while.

My Red Stripe with #2 Rose Oak limbs.

Just got a 2 tone B riser from Big Jim and ordered another set of #2s, Love the #2s.

Havent taken anything with it yet. Had a 25 yard shot at a turkey this morning but it was a near miss. I personally like the "birthmarks" makes it more unique.

I'm a big fan of the "birthmarks" too. That one is sweet. Picked up an Two Tone A riser from Big Jim a couple of months ago, told him the uglier the better

I saw an older LH green stripe B handle for sale a few days ago for $400. Wasn't sure if that was a fair price because I'm just not up of Bear T/Ds, but suuuure was tempted anyway!

My next bow purchase have a while to save.

Fully anticipate shooting a Bear T/D on a coveted hog hunt this March.

Feel that Bear captured the most important feature of a bow decades ago... 'The grip'. Grips are individualistic, however the Bear standard grip is personally most accommodating.

I've sold two LH Green Stripe B's, one still in the package for $400 or $450. I thought the price was very fair.

David Mitchell · « **Reply #993 on:** December 12, 2015, 09:49:00 AM »

Friend, I have noticed a variation in the grips on the Bears I own and those of others I have shot. I got a Super K earlier this year, a 2015 model, that has the best grip I have experienced on a Bear--quite different from my SK from 2014. Both SKs have a different grip feel from my Kodiak TD.

Could I get one of you with an A and B riser to measure the overall length please? I'm curious about something. Thanks.

Caleb Monroe · « **Reply #995 on:** December 17, 2015, 03:39:00 PM »

I just picked up one last night. B rise #1 limbs thought it might stack but its smooth as butter to my 31" draw. Fred got it right with this one.
