Sort of a good deal on a '62
« on: February 01, 2009, 03:50:00 PM »
Those of you "close to me" already know about this find. I have decided to share it with others.

Pics below are of a recently acquired 1962 Kodiak. The strength of this bow is the glass. Not a single stress mark to be found - seriously not 1. Also is a 62 with the I beam construction. The drawback to the bow is that it has that checkerboard hazing in the clearcoat on the handle. I guess I shouldn't complain too hard though; being as it cost me under 40 bucks.

Those of you who know about the ad I found on this bow know that this bow was advertised as a 60 pounder. Turns out the seller was confused. He saw the AMO was 60". The bow is actually a 50 pounder.

LOL, And I thought I stole my 62 Kodiak when I paid $75.00 for it.

Interesting that the 62's hardly ever have stress but the 61's most often do.  

Great find Bill, You'll love this one.  Trap
