I could use some information about this bow. A friend just gave it to me. It hadn't been strung or shot in over 20 years. He hunted with me using this bow, probably 40 years ago. Also included a quiver ( thus the brass inserts in the riser for the quiver) and 8 aluminum 2117 shafts. I put on a new string and the limbs are very straight. Have shot it a couple times at the indoor range and it shoots pretty good. I know this is not an expensive bow, but I would like to get more information about it if possible.
Thanks
Bow had a lot of dust on it from years past. I removed the quiver and cleaned the bow with a good furniture polish. Looks much better now.
Sorry for the double photo - I'm still learning how to post photos on this site.
From the serial number 1967 Bearcat 66inch, 50lbs at 28 inch draw length.
Are they worth much? Sure shoots good for an old bow. My shoulders sure like it after shooting a 70 lb. bow for nearly 50 years.
That is a a sweet Bearcat. I have a 1966 Zebrawood LH version at 48#. Yours is 66" AMO and great shape. I bought mine in 2012 for $100. Saw one (1966 zebrawood) this year go on this site for about $170. You have a found a jewel.
