Very nice looking bow. The lower part of the riser in pic #1 really looks fantastic. Also, very nice composition on the pics. Well done and a super nice bow.

The '62 is right up there at the top of my favorites in looks and performance.  

BTW, that should be Brazillian Rosewood in the '62.

Very pretty grain to that one.  The rosewood in mine appears slightly darker.

I know Jim and I was feeling really bad all morning.I was thinking man I should come clean and confess to it.But nope not me I had to wait until you posted.Then I felt good thinking I was not the only child.
And truthfuly no matter what Roy said even if it were only two figures like $99.00 I would be out of the running.I have that bear hunt next month and spending dough right now would not workout good at bd's place( my wife would kill me).
And yes truthfuly I'am pissed I did not find that one.I love those bows I mean almost really love em and I've shot several critter includeing elk with a 1962 Kodiak 55#.Those are just super sweet hunting bows.
I love that bow really Roy and was just yanking your chain.That is a Real gem right there.bowdoc

The Kodiak has a new home and when I see a Left Hand 62 Kodiak on here I hope I  will be the first to pop the question. They just have to be the all time best looking Bear bow with that African Rose Wood.....Like an old girl friend, she will not be forgotten..
