In Dan Bertalan's book Fred said of all his bows he'd go back and grab a 1976 Super K. if he had to choose one.
Learn, practice and pass on "leave no trace" ethics, no matter where you hunt.

Yep, I think so Gary, I thought that's where the pic came from.

The last time I saw him he saw my kodiak takedown and said " that's the kind of bow ~I~ hunt with".
 Just like the one in myshootinstinks photo....
WELL.... Charlies photo -

THE VOICES HAVEN'T BOTHERED ME SINCE I STARTED POKING THEM WITH A Q-TIP.

Ya-boy!  Interesting I never paid attention to the brace hight because I was so focused on the grip.  That must be 9"+.  :eek:

I believe he used the latest in his line. I BELIEVE he was really fond of his Super Kodiak. The pics of him with it are my favorites...maybe I am a bit biased,but I understand he took ALOT of game with it.
71' kodiak hunter 43#
76' grizzly 50#
76' kodiak magnum 55#
80? super kodiak w/factory camo 55
08' super kodiak 55#
