1957 Kodiak and other stuff
« on: January 13, 2009, 01:12:00 PM »
I'm just playing around with photos again since it's freezing outside anyhow and thought I would post a pic of my newest old bow,a 1957 Kodiak,60",54#.It just came in the mail and I thought how nice it was for a 52 year old bow.So.. I decided to do a little layout of some items someone might have put together in preparing for opening day of bow season back in 1957.I know I still anticipate the opener and the excitement of digging out all my gear that I'll need to pursue that monster white-tail.This ritual has been going on probably since the first bow was ever made.Enjoy.

Thats a great pic.However that stuff less maybe the catalog should all be laying beside some huge ass buck or bull maybe a nice black bear or grizz...Then on the cover of every outdoor magizine in print.That would just cap it off so sweet.Gee's could ya'all see that stuff covered in blood........yikes maybe not.I'am second thought how's about you sending that stuff to me Johnnyboy old buddy old pals-ie wals-ie...your bestest buddy ever....bd

My suggestion is to fill that quiver, put a  string on the old bow, sharpen up the razorheads  and go kill some bunnies.  

All that bow needs is some fresh air and a little TLC.

Yes,Kurt is right.That green thing is a bowstring.And doc,I didn't know you cared so much.It's nice to be loved.LOL
 And you're right.That stuff would look better surrounding a harvest of some sort.I'll see what I can do.
