My never ending quest for the deal, had me out Sat morning before work. Geeze that's only a hour to shop   :readit:

One of my first stops revealed a older sportsman, and after picking up a couple things. I ask you gotta any old bows!!   :rolleyes:  Well just so happened he did, he asked his wife to retrieve it. As he told me he had loaned it to his brother in law, and he camouflaged it up. I said OOOOH that don't sound so good. And he replied he had no idea why someone would do that to some one else's bow! Well it did'nt look so good at first,



But after cutting the camo material, and electical tape off   :(  ICK magic marker   :mad:


She cleaned up pretty good with some nasty chemicals and elbow grease. And metamorphosed into a dang pretty 60" 37# 1963 Dogleg Cub. :D  

Some kid is gonna be happy!!!!!   :readit:

Amazing how much CRAP you can clean off an old Bear bow..lets be thankful he used some good finishes through the years that allows us to bring them back to life..

Very nice find! Always pays to ask about archery stuff at yard sales. Nice job on the Cub. As a Cub guy I appreciate yours. Have you had a chance to shoot it yet?? John

I have not John, I'm a lefty. And had to rescue it from the basement prison. I will find it a new home, where it can play in the yard and the woods   :D

I am a lefty too. I do have the benefit of a 10 year old son coming up who shoots trad gear and is RH so I keep a few of the ones I find for him and his sister. Great find !!!
