So I take a lil ridicule from some friends about my old bow. Ive had it since the mid 90's. You can see a pic of it in the TEam page under GAry Gone Wild or on the bow kill thread. I was just wandering does anybody else in the state still hunt with one of these bows other than me?
Or if you still got a relic you kill deer with then lets hear about it.

I have an old (late 1960s) Black Mamba that I hunted with until about three years ago. I pulled it out to let a friend shoot it last year and the limb tip delaminated.

Broke my neck and tore my rotator cuff at the same time in '05 and just can't draw enough to practice right anymore so I hunt with a cross-rifle now.

Oldest bow I've used & killed with was an '08; but I rub "virtual" shoulders w/many old Bear guys that are using recurves from decades ago (60's & 70's easily) & still taking down game & posting pics online...

Early 1990s High Country Supreme.

Heck some guys here always buy the newest. My Mathews was purchased in 06. Smoke can't even spell OLD BOW ! LOL

my Bear TD is a 1969 model that still kills....

I shoot a 60's model bear recurve. And i still have my Mathews MQ1. That's the newest bow I got. Kills just like a 2016 model

I bought myself a custom recurve (Groves Spitfire Mag III) for my 50th birthday, that was 2001. This thread reminds me that I need to go shoot it some more

Cam post a pic of that thang !!! Lets see sum of those old bows !!!

We have a guy in our club that still uses one. I'm pretty sure it's a 60s. You can't beat those bows. Mine is an 04 Black Widow. My uncle's is a 92 or 93 Widow.

Fred is it hard to get out of your wheelchair to shoot (OLD MAN)???

That is also a good looking bow. I'm still determined to make my own after this season and I move into the new house. The basement bow range and "archery shop" has been approved by the Mrs.

pretty sure I can outrun yer azz.....

I still hunt with my Mathews MQ32. Still killing deer with it and don't see that changing any time soon.

I cant justify spending the kind of money it would take to get a good new bow. I only get to bow hunt one or two times per year. If my old buckmaster ever lays down Im going to a X-bow so I can take my kid and sit in shooting houses and let her shoot.

During my three or four years of bowhunting ("you ain't gone beleeeeeeve the deer you see during bow season!! It's wild! The deer are everywhere! You gotta get in on this!") I used a 1980s McPherson GC-2000 that seemed to be good when I practiced with it. I never released the first arrow at a deer, but I did practice a lot.

50 year old bear grizzly, bought 25 years ago at a yard sale for $40 bucks. Late season I switch to a 2003 Mathews LX, bought off eBay 10 years ago for $200. They both kill deer just as dead as the new stuff.

Early 90's (I think '92) High Country Royal Hunter

Here you go Perch:

Nice bow, CAM!

Nice! This is mine.

Thanks guy's!! Recurve, that's a beautiful widow

Thanks, Cam! I want to build one during the off season, but I am dying to order a Black Widow PSA-X Bocote. I may do both.

Good looking bows, guys!

I had an old Jennings that I would likely still shoot if someone hadn't made off with it one evening out of the storage shed.

Replaced it with a SBXT in 2010 and haven't looked back. Don't see getting another one anytime soon unless I was to get into the traditional game.

Vernon, your post always make me smile.

My old bow

Nice Kodiak, bud!!

Mid 90's Pearson Diamondback here

Ben Pearson 440 one cam. I don't know what model year but I bought it used sometime around 1999 or 2000. I still have an old API Predator climber and an old Summit with bars instead of cables that both see some use each year also.

I have a 93 model PSE 1000C with round wheels, and a 99 model Champion single cam I bought new when Jay's outdoors in Montgomery sold them.

I can't see paying 1k for a new set up when these two still work.
