I recently bought a Bear tigercat 56" 53@28 that is in very good condition and is a really great shooter. I've owned several tigercats but mine have all been 62". Is this length a rarity?

Thanks
Glenn

the 1977 catalog shows the Tigercat as 56"

Thanks....great little bow...the tigercat IMHO is the sleeper of the Bear line....real bargains!

I believe they started out as 62" in '64 and went to the shorter versions in '69.

I have one, it is a real sleeper bow almost sold it once, put a skinny string on it and HOLY COW! speed went up and took 90% of the hand shock out of it. great bow...

They made a 58" version in 1970. Didn't know they made a 56" model.

I make my own skinny strings padded to 18 strands for my vintage bows and I agree they will shoot with most anything I've had the pleasure of shooting....
