Bear brand Element model compound bow. 70lb draw weight. Never took it out hunting. Grip padding is not the best. Comes with no accessories. Just thought I'd put it up on here and give someone a deal. I'll probly keep it up till Aftermath. If nobody wants it, it's goin to the pawn shop. It's a great bow but I just don't have the strength to draw it. Make me an offer  aegs, other bows (40lb or 50lb draw), money, or just about anything. would love to find it a good home.  |

I would get with dave before selling, real "weapons". I been wanting to post my bow too, but always forget to ask. Just one of those things you have to be careful of.

Also don't take it to the pawnshops around the 254 area. They will literally give you 20-50 bucks for it and try to sell it for more than a brand new bow.

Don't go near pawn shops, you'll get way more on Ebay than any pawn shop would give you. Try this, take it to a pawn shop and ask how much they would give you for it, then say you'll think about it and leave. Go put it up on Ebay (spend the time to take several pictures and accurately describe it, give brand, model number, etc. Make your auction look nice. And set the starting price as whatever the pawn shop quoted you. It seems like quite a few people have this weird fear of selling stuff on Ebay, use it! thats what its there for! don't be scared! I've been selling stuff since I was like 13.

This bow looks to be fully tightened on the limbs. You can loosen the bolts a bit to lighten the pull. You have to be careful, because you remove bolts to far out and they wont have enough to keep them from stripping out.
If you can lighten the bow enough to pull you'll quickly build strength to pull it regularly without issue. Cabelas will probably help you get the bow setup for you to pull it. Also you can cheater pull to help you build the strength which is to raise the bow to about 120 degrees and pull from there. 90 degrees being level pull.
I actually have the Bear Charge 70lb bow.

motormouth - that's a pretty accurate assessment. Ebay just feels like a lot of time and hassle with shipping and such.
sly - nearest cabelas is over an hour away. maybe Academy might help. i have no idea on anything concerning bolts. I have a bad knack for breaking things like that lol.
dave - i apologize for not consulting. there will be no arrows brought if this is ever at the field.
poo - thanks for the advice.
Still taking offers. Diamondback has first consideration right now but nothing solid.

Yeah I saw one with bows for up to $700. I'd never pay that much for used. And, like you said, some poor guy probly got ripped off for under $100

Tomorrow is the last time I will bring this around. If no one says anything about it, it'll be gone early this week regardless.
