My 66 Kodiak Arrived Today
« on: March 08, 2012, 05:37:00 PM »
My recent desire for a vintage Bear led me to this beautiful 66 Kodiak. I can't tell you how happy I am with this bow. Aside from two plugged sight holes in the riser she is in excellent condition and man does she shoot!! Take a look..

I think the 66 is one of the nicer looking of the Kodiak line. Good for you, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!

Fred - I've got one that could be your bow's twin.  The bow shoots great for me - maybe not as snappy as my '62 Kodiak but a very consistent shooter and built to take whatever any hunt I've taken it on can dish out  :)

I just received a Bear leather top spring arm quiver for it. Really looks cool. I'll post a pic tomorrow.

My compliments. Those Kodiaks are great bows. Mine is 52# and 64" long. Seems mine just finds the target no matter what. Just got through shooting it in a stiff wind and it still grouped those cedar arrows where it counted. It's going to be neat hunting this year with a bow that is 46 years old.

Good Luck,
Ross
