update of the Christmass kid, Kyle is now here!
« on: December 01, 2013, 09:44:00 PM »
a girl i went to school with has a 16 years old son that desperately wants to get in to Traditional archery and hunting. he has asked for a recurve for Christmas and needs everything to go with it. our very own Kat ( Ken Thornhill ) has graciously offered to give the young man a Bear Grizzly! i believe i have arrows, field points, and old shooting glove and a few odds and ends to give him. if anyone has anything they think he might be able to use laying around it would really help out a TON as his mother is a single, working mom and they do not have a lot. he wears medium clothes and Lord knows i can't help him with that! i know he could use a quiver and hunting clothes for sure. anything would be greatly appreciated! i would really love to be able to give everything to his mother in 2 weeks so she does not sweet it out. feel free to reply here or pm. the young mans Grampa is teaching him deer hunting know but he is rather old and can not get around well. i offered to help him learn how to shoot and scout to be ready for next year. i also will take him to 3d shoots and stump shooting. its all about the youth, we all know that!

PM me your address. I don't use a shooting glove anymore and have I think 2 that are in good shape that I could send. Is he right or left handed? I could send a shooting tab or 2 in case he likes a tab better. What spine arrows will he need for the bow weight he will be shooting? I will look and see what else I could send.
Thanks,
Mark

Ken,

Does Kat's Grizzly have the riser inserts for a Bear quiver?  I have a seven-arrow "Quick Detach" Bear bow quiver and base that would match the Grizzly nicely (I have it camoed).  I'll send it to you if he has the bushings that will allow it to attach.

Note also it's of the age that wood or aluminum shafts of 11/32" or 23/64" would fit but not the little carbon 9/32" jobs.

I can make him a back quiver. Find out if he's RH or LH please. And send me their address or your address.

Nothing fancy, but a functioning back quiver for loads of arrow shootn' fun  ;)

PM me.

If you don't have the arrows he needs, let me know.
I may have something sitting around which will be full length.

Wow, she's your age? She must have given birth to him when she was 70 and granpa must be well into his hundreds. Anyway old man, I got you some arrows and probably broad heads.

anyone have any extra dvd's, books or magazines they could part with? he has shown that he wants to learn about the history of traditional archery as well. hopefully Kat can give ya the spec's of the bow shortly.

I removed the side plate to replace it, and it says 48#. It is RH and 58 inches long.

Charlie-There are no riser inserts, but thanks for the generous offer.

Thanks to all for your generosity. The folks here on this sight never cease to amaze me.

I will take some pictures of the bow, and post them here.

What size boots + clothes does he wear? I'm sure I have something he could use.
