The 1959 Bear Kodiak is probabably the most collectable of all vintage Bear Archery bows. Everyone seems to want them and prices for '59s clearly reflect that.
Even more desireable are heavy-draw-weight 1959 Bear Kodiaks.....like the bow just posted in the Classified (Traditional Bow) Section of this forum with LOTS OF PHOTOS. That all-original 1959 Kodiak draws 75 pounds (!) and is a superb example of the most vintage of all Bear Archery recurve bows.
