Got this one through Ebay auctions last week. It's a hard-to-find Pro Medalist Hunter, 62", 52#. Shoots great but has a few holes I will need to fill on opposite side of sight window. Previous owner had a sight mounted as well as an arrow holder....with wood screws..YIKES. A little plastic wood and it will be good. These bows are great shooers, just like the target models. The huner models are difficult to locate nowadays so I feel fortunate to have got this one.

Wow, what a great find! I've always wanted one of those and a P2 Hunter. Very nice bows.

George -

Congrats - Have a funny feeling you're gonna like it. Only problem with them was they didn't come standard with the Hoyt micro-adjustable rest.

Here's a comparison of the target vs the hunting models (if the pic doesn't show - hit F5):

BTW - You really don't want to know what I paid for mine, brand spanking new, in 1975.

Viper1 out.
