    73 Super Grizzly with Fascor?

    Looking at a heavier bow and came across a 73 Super Grizzly with "Fascor". Usual 58" bow in black and red with a 60# draw weight. No idea what Fascor is and thought I'd ask here. Any reason to avoid it?

      Yep, it's 60#

      The one thing that helped me in the beginning, was when I finally started shooting just one bow

        Yeah I still only shoot the one bow but am always looking for a good deal on a heavier one.

              Not a Bear Guru or anything, but I believe they are as solid as any bow made. Fascor was just a creative term for impregnated wood I believe. I have shot a few Heavier bows and came back to the 50# mark. Easier to shoot all day at target and feel better with it in the woods.

                  I have some 60 and over 60 bows. It is hard to shoot well under strain. I have found that 52 is my magic number. If you were closer I would loan you a heavier bow. They will find your weak spots. I never had a problem with trigger finger until I moved up to 55. Now I can't open my hand in the morning until I run hot water over it.

                    I figure around 50 will be my max. Even if I could handle more I'm not going to put that strain on my shoulders. You sleep through the reconstruction surgery. The months of rehab is painful.

                      I have a 53@28 and 52@28 Bob Lee, a Bear Super Kodiak 50@28, and a Tomhawk 57@28.
                      I can shoot the Lee's and the Bear all day long day after day without any strain. I can hold all 3 at full draw for 10 seconds and still make a great shot.

                      The 57# long bow wears me out after 60 shots or so.

                      Its amazing how much difference just a fee pounds can make.

                      I too think 52/53 is my sweet spot.

                        Sounds like my entire body some mornings.

                          Getting older is painful as well. But we have more memories and can say we've seen more and done more. I'm a little afraid of 60 or 70 years old.

                            Buy it and I will trade you for a 50lb Grizzly.
