Great, first Tony shows us how to kill everything with a Snuffer, now he's gonna do it with vintage Bears.  I hope Frank doesn't take this thread as advertising for Snuffers or vintage Bears  :bigsmyl:

Early 70s Kodiak Hunter:





Stumping/scouting with a few blunts and Judos a week before season starts. The quiver is now loaded with those green footed woodies tipped with some older Zwickeys and Aces...

Thanks fellows for the kind words. Yes Cylic-Rivers I do have long armsLOL). Matter of fact I shoot full length carbon arrows, and the broadhead hits the front of the bow. Have any of you have any luck so far? I went out one day since our season here in Maryland opened this past Wednesday. I did not hear or see a bird. I will be at it again next week. Shoot Straight and Good Hunting

I hunted with my '61, 45# Bear Kodiak Magnum, and an old vintage 29" POC arrow tipped with my only '56 Bear Bubble-Head Razorhead. My son called a nice gobbler to within spitting distance the second weekend of GA bow season and I blew the shot. I hit too far back on a point blank shot and we were not able to recover the bird or find the Bubble Head.   :mad:  
I'm still using the same set up, but with '60 Razorheads.

 This 1972 K-Mag and I will be turning 40 together this year, hope we can connect with some game!

JJB

Some good looking bows here, this is a fun thread.  Keep after them Chuck!  Kris, I'll be turning 40 with my turkey bow this year also (the Root above).  I haven't had any shots yet but have a couple tags for later seasons here in Wisconsin, hopefully will have more action then.

No bow yet Philip, but I do have a few turkey pic's, but first I need to say Thank You Felix for '64 Kodiak>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Got this bird about 8:30 this AM they never quit gobbeling once they hit the ground this AM. No more that a 5 yard shot and he made it about 70 yards. I will post a full story on Pow Wow later tonight.

'64 Kodiak and Bear Razorheads.
24 LBS on a bathroom scale ( for what that's worth)

Thanks

Ya I know my string tracker is still on the bow but I've had some back luck the last 2 years and those Avain Zinx decory are worth the money.
