Tom2008 Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 Re: how old is it? I would think that the exact date that it gave you (12-07-87) would be when it was made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Shooter Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 Re: how old is it? If it's got round wheels made of composite, I'd say it's an 87 bow. If it's got machined cams, it's a 97 bow. Wasn't it 1987 when Fred Bear pasted away? Also, does it have strings or cable's on it, that'll be another clue to how old it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
