Hello all....
i recently came into ownership of a 1964-65 (according to the database), Bear Tigercat, marked at 45lbs, with a Zebrawood riser, aluminum? bear coin, white glass, and solid Orange tip overlays..... serial #3BM126...
What can y'all tell me about this specific bow?
good shooter? anything rare about it?
Thank you for your time....!

The serial number should be a 1964. Is it yellow glass?

P.W.Smith

i think it could be called "yellow" -but looks more of a creamish.... it probably is yellow, but has aged a little bit....
it is, surprisingly enough, still in almost mint condition....!

The catalog says yellow glass and brown tips. I love tigercats, they shoot great.

P.W.Smith

well... the tips are definitely not brown. an orangey red, but not brown...... and i took it out today to shoot- you were right! they really do shoot very nicely.....

The Tigercat, Bearcat and Alaskan are all very nice shooting bows and can still be found at a very reasonable price.

Nice bows Larry!  Thanks for posting.

Those 62" Tigercats have been very tempting to me.  I don't own one....yet....

Thanks Ceme
It would be nice if Mr. Smith could get a picture up of his Tigercat. Creamish White glass, Zebrawood and Orangey Red tip overlays sounds like a nice looking bow.

P.W.Smith

alright... will get some up tomorrow AM.... it really is a looker, for sure!

P.W.Smith

ok all.....lets see if i can get this picture-posting thing figured out....   :knothead:  
the riser:

The limb tips (looks a lot more reddish in natural light!)
 

... and a pic of the glass color.....
 

and an overall shot....

Nice riser.  Looks like a great bow to shoot.  Thanks for the pics

The Zebrawood with the white glass and brown limb tips sure makes a good looking bow. Should be a fun one to shoot. Thanks for the pictures.....
