I just picked this one. I don't have the Bear Catalogs on CD yet (I am going to take your advice and order one Tom) and could use your help in any details you could provide on this. Year? Wood? etc. It is the wrong side for me. Thanks alot John [/url] [/IMG]

Hey John, if you look down the page a bit, you'll see a thread titled something like "Bear Kodiak Specials".
Wade Phillips compiled a whole bunch of pics and data. If you look through it you'll see your bow in there.

I believe you've got a very nice '57!

Yup. Most likely a 57. Your very own Little Delta Bow.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. Forgive me for not looking first. Wade's info is the absolute BEST!

A very clean looking '57.  Those bows are great shooters.

Hard to believe that bow is 52 years old...looks like it just left the store...Great Find!  Glad you got the info you needed, John...

Thanks guys. the bow truly is stunning IMO. Looks beautiful and my wife and I were talking that we couldn't believe it was over 50 years old. Fred Bear really made some great bows!
