^^Dinner, you're doing it right.^^

RH, honest question: what's one of those recurves worth?

Pretty much whatever someone is willing to pay for them. I shoot lefty so I mainly watch LH bows; the pricing is a bit different than right handers. It seems LH Bears are either great deals or way high, depends how many lefties are trolling ebay that week.

I paid a little over $300 for the Super Kodiak, which is a good price considering I've seen lefty Super-K's go in the high 400-500+ range fairly often of fleabay. For some reason not many LH Super Koidaks come up for sale. Most of them I've seen have had a lot of bidders; this one did not for some reason. The '67-69 Super-K is one of the more sought after old Bears.

I won the '70 K-Hunter a few years ago for $280-ish IIRC. That was more than the RH models were going for. It was cheap until the last minute and then a ton of bidders jumped on it. Honestly this is why I wanted it:

Tigercat has been a while but I think it was $175-ish. "Normal" Tigercats are a lot cheaper, Zebrawood will bring higher prices every time. The 62" Tigercats are a great value in old Bears IMO. Very good bows for the price.

Things like being in a desirable weight and AMO length affect price as well.

Nice selection you've got there!

I've got what I think is a 67' Bear Polar that I inherited from my Grandpa, I've been meaning to have it checked to see if its safe to shoot.

This is Pierre, our foster Standard Poodle. I know, a stupid french name for a German dog, but that's what we got. He's the middle dog and up for adoption. He's actually better behaved than our other 2 adopted standards. Well trained, well mannered, calm and ready of affection. Great dog for his forever family. He has a fondness for exotic birds (expensive cockatoo's, mmmmmm good!), is great with kids, cats, traveling, etc. and came with a nice leather, studded Harley Davidson collar. Most people laugh when I mention "poodles" but these guys are great. He stands around 27" tall and weighs 58+ lbs, not a huge dog but not what most people think of when you say poodle. They are great, very smart dogs and with some training would even make great hunting dogs since they were originally German water dogs.
