Waaaah! Looks like the old one is gone. Just thot I'd try to start a new one. Will try a pix next.

Testing!

Boy am I good or what?
The pix didn't show for me in the preview tho. Hmmm

Edit: Ok I did find them with the Search function.

Gun,
Preview does not show pictures in this new format - only text. There is one more step to post pictures at full size. You have to click the ( Insert Attachment) field to the right of the Browse box. Old eyes appreciate the full size pictures.

Great bows.......wish I had gotten one earlier, but now that I do I really like shooting them.

Roy from Pa · March 29, 2018, 09:06:53 AM

I bought mine new in 1971 or 72. Can't remember back that far now:)
I think it was the first year the victor viking came out.

Anyone Know how to date old bear bows by the serial #?

About the bow in the picture... one of if not the best shooting bow I ever owned. However! It blew a limb (75#) and damn near knocked me down. I returned it only to have the replacement blow up a year later. Same result. Knocked me senseless for a bit.
I sold it

and of course regretted it to this day. The buyer wouldn't sell it back

Don't know where it is today.

By the way it was a first generation B riser. Here it is in action.

One of my favorite pictures Charlie! I hunted with a newer one this last fall. Never had any shots unfortunately.

*have a picture but apparently it's too big straight off the phone. Oh well. Resized!

Varmint... love the photo. Great form too.

varmint101 · March 30, 2018, 07:32:56 PM

Thanks Charlie! I had to put the camera wedged in a corn stalk to get it.
