As long as it took me to find one I'd say any LH 67 1/2 SK is rare. BowDoc has mine right now.

Philip its a 64" and 45# and its the only one I've come across in 4 plus years. I wish it was a few more pounds but I'll take it.

Maybe BD will post some more pic's
Good Luck with your new bow.

Your bow is sweet Doug!
Those 64" models are soooooooo smooth to shoot.

By the way..........The bow I found is for a friend.....  ;)

oh yeah Phil you got that right.I personaly now this is IMHO personaly believe a 64" Bear Super Kodiaks is about one of if not the best shooting bow ever built.Why why you ask ? well several reasons but one is because most were in the heavier draw weights well you know 40+ pounds ? built in hunting weights up to 70#'s correct ? OK you got a hunting draw weight bow on an almost target bow length(number 3 limbs on a B riser is about the same bow).Super super smooth to shoot.And if you do not over bow yourself in draw weight they are real nail drivers bd

I love the 64" Super Ks.
I can shoot em all day long.
But for hunting, I'm a 60" guy and the one I found here for Felix is 55# LH~!!!!

How's the 67 Kodiak "black Beauty" going?
Miss talking to you........Philip

I love all the SK,but for sure the 67 is the more appealing and maybe the best shooter.
I had a very clean 67-55# that I HAD to trade for a Type1 B riser,plus other stuff,and since then I missed it,BUT.. a good angel for NYC give me a twin brother.Thanks so much again Philip,you just earned a free lodging and hunting for 2 in the Alps.LOL.Wine free too.

I was lucky enough to get a 67 1/2 LH 60 " in a weight of 64# . I love mine and took a whitetail with it last year.... Collecting them now. I also have a 58, 62, and 66 Kodiaks ....all in LH, very hard to find. The 58 is 56". Alot of guys on this  site here are great and trade or sell bows .
