I like Holcomb best but rare and expensive. Saxon is not bad with a kodiak the guy that makes Griffins has a pretty good one and there is a company in colorado Vintage Bows that makes probably the second best after Holcomb

I had a '57 Kodiak done by Holcomb-beautiful bow and a great shooter. I would try to get a hold of whatever one you pick and shoot it enough to know it is what you like.

If that bow shoots anything like it looks then you have got something there. What a beauty.

Check out Holmmade Traditional bows.  Chad has a Kodiak Grip for his Curve that looks pretty sweet.

Here is a Holcomb Wing P2 replica. I have owned his 57 and 59 replica Bear  bows and all are great shooters.

Physically heavy. It is 48# but shoots like it's 55#. I normally shoot 55-60#.
