During the 1950s up to 1960, Bear Kodiaks were made in heavy weights from 75# to 100# on special order, and in 1961 and 1962 in 70# to 100# on special order. Some of these old Kodiaks were made over 100#.
The most famous of these Special Order Heavy Weights is of course Bill Negley's 102# Elephant bow, a 64" 1957 Kodiak.
Occasionally one of these heavy weights show up on an auction site. If they are in good condition, which most are, they usually sell for a premium, almost always for more than 10 times their original cost in the 1950s or 1960s.
Collectors and shooters just can't seem to find enough of these old heavy weight Kodiaks to satisfy their needs.
