My wife and I went to an Antique auction and estate sale not far from home in North Georgia.

I was fooling around with a guitar that was going to be auction when the wife comes over and says to put the guitar down and come see what is over here.  I said "yes Dear" and followed her like a dutiful spouse and she led me to two old recurve bows and an old wheelie bow.

The recurves were a '70's Grizzly with a flat coin, and a Browning Nomad Stalker.  The Stalker had one of those '60's style range finding sights on it.  It was in better shape than the Grizzly,  Both were solid bows but the Griz had a pretty dirty finish.  

The Compound was an old Whitetail II.  It went for $17.50.  Too high in my opinion.

I bid on the Stalker, but my last bid was $25.00 and it went for $27.50.

By the way the other guy was bidding, I figured he would not back off and I really wante the Griz

When the Griz came up I worked the bid up to $25.00 in quick bids.  I guess the other guy figured I would not back off and he had already won the Stalker and the Whitetail II.

Long story short I got a solid, although ugly, Grizzly for $25.00

When I got home and cleaned off some of the grime , dust, and whatever, it ended up being a pretty clean looking bow.

Now that was more fun than getting one off of e8ay for $10

How about a pic of that ugly Grizzly...great day afield.

HELL YEAH.bd

way to go Jack.  

My digital camera is a piece of crap, and I am too technlogically challenged to post pics

Sorry
