Da Bears...... of '59

[alaskabowhunter]

Here is all 3 lengths of the '59 Kodiak with maple sight window in all original condition. The 56 incher was recently acquired from a fellow trad ganger (the deal was made with his father actually)to both our satisfaction. Thanks again Alex. It is with pleasure I present these pics, a small tribute to the late Al Reader. I miss not being able to call Al and talk bows. These photos were as much his dream as they are mine. I hope you  enjoy.

The Tri-fecta....very nice.  Al was the best no doubt about it.  He was always willing to share his knowledge of Bear bows.  I remember talking about "Heavy Hitters" years ago...seems like yesterday.

Chuck- Very nice looking set of Bears right there.Thanks for sharing them.

[alaskabowhunter]

You just never know what bows are out there to be discovered. Just when we think we've seen it all, something else shows up. I'm sure more will surprise  us in the future. Keep digging through those old barns John.
 With all due respect and honor I am naming this 56" msw "Top Kodiak".  I'm sure everyone will understand.

[vintage-bears]

I understand. Very thoughtful.

Looking at a 56" maple sight window '59 on thee "Bay right now.

Should be interesting to watch these bidders over the next 6 days.

[KyStickbow]

Such a nice bow Tony, but it's really a shame that it is not in a good hunting weight
