The spin BH's are razorback.  I shot them in the early 1980.

Ken dropped the bow off today.....looks like she will clean up well. I think I have the twist out of the limbs already. A bit of TLC and this old girl will be ready to hit the woods! I'm not going to do a restoration but just a face lift and get it back into working order!

I warned you, Ken.  That '64-'67 design Grizz is a GREAT bow.
