Takedown. The '59 kodiak is sweet but does not stack arrows like a takedown.

My 1969 Tigercat! I shoot it better than I ever did my Super Kodiak or Kodiak Hunter.

My best is my greenstripe B with #1 Rose Oak limbs -- 51# at 29".
I have 3 other Bear TDs, and they are all great
/accurate bows, but the greenstripe is the most accurate of the bunch for me.

Great lookin setup you got there. I like Kmags but they pinch at my 30" draw. Right now I'm shooting a new Super Grizzly. It is about 61# at my draw length, but is smooth as silk and quiet as a church mouse.

My favorite is my 66 Kodiak, although I like shooting my 56 Kodiak the 66 is the smoothest of them all.

I've got a 1971 Super Kodiak and it's a beautiful bow and a great shooter.  I just set up some tapered Surewood shafts I got from Wilderness Custom arrows and they're flying like lazer beams from it.  It's 43#@28 inches and probably about 47/47 at my 29" draw.
