Bear Kodiak Special

[northstar]

I am trying to date a bow and get some backgroud on it.
It is a Bear Kodiak Special. Silk screened logos, leather wrap grip, serial XW048, 66" 51#.
I believe it is "I" beam  contruction in the riser. I am trying to date and get a rough estimate on the worth for the owner.

Thanks for all you help.  Jeff
