HELP! Idendify this new Indian for an old man!
« on: November 04, 2008, 12:06:00 AM »
Just purchased this because it was a double and love them doubles.
Could you all find it in your heart to try to figure out when it was manufactured and are there any more available.
I'm not concerned with the value, because that is personal. OK Give me a value.
I will tell you that it showed up today, I cleaned it up, and will fling arras thru it tomorrow after 2 PM CST.
No string included but think I can find 1 to fit.
Actually collect RWH, purchase a Bear when they are affordable, but couldn't pass on this one.

How about some pics of that Kodiak with the compass? Is it a 60" AMO ?
I was born with nothing and I still have most of it left.

Fred could you look and see if you can read the letters A.M.O. on the bow anywhere..AMO did not appear on bows until about march of 1968.After that all or almost all bows had AMO writen on them.AMO string length on some...yours would most likely be stamped into the riser wood or near the fadeouts in the wood.But I gonna go out on a limb here,hey out on a limb thats funny.I going to say thats I think an early 1960's model.But not possitive.I will try and dig out some Indian catalogs later today...bd

Here are some pics of the Compass Kodiak II
This is one I need the Kodiak II decal for
It is a double shelf also 60" 55#@28

Doc is right, both Indian and Pearson had double shelf models in those years. 1960 would be real close.
