How about posting any pictures of harvests made with a Bear bow?

Details appreciated, but, not necessary.

Thanks for participating, Skychief.

buck in my avatar from several years ago, best I can remember it was a 55 lb super Kodiak 60" (could be wrong on that) I had a solo Arkansas back pack hunting trip planned and wasn't going to miss it.. I am a lefty but I injured my hand requiring stitches and a splint, so I borrowed a right hand bow and figured out how to shoot right handed,  it worked out pretty well..

Dave the bow in your pic is a Kodiak Hunter, I too used one to take this buck last year. They are great bows. A bear is hard to beat.

New Mexico mule deer a couple of years ago with a '68 Super Kodiak.
 

South Carolina hog from the Bacon Strip last spring with a Green Stripe takedown.
 

A pair of Nebraska toms and a Wisconsin  bearded hen, all this past spring with the same Green Stripe.
