      Comments about Bear 60" Kodiak Recurve Bow:

      Ok I bought this bow cause the boys at Three Rivers recommended it, and it looks slicker than heck. I'm thinkin it's bout the finest lookin bow I've seen from Bear. Well I got it home and after shootin it I can say it shoots as as good as it looks. I put some felt on the string contact points with a little beaver fur and even with a 500 and just 125 up front it's flat out quite and fast. I really cant think of any bow I would pick over this one. I'm proud of it and I know Fred would be.

        Comments about Bear 60" Kodiak Recurve Bow:

        A truly beautiful bow from tip to tip . At 40# it zips a 1916 arrow w/ a 125 point with authority , zero hand shock and it is very quiet even with the factory string .
        Bear finally got it right with this bow , I think Fred would be proud . Can't wait to hit the woods next fall and I won't feel under gunned even at 40#.
        My order was quickly processed and shipped by 3 Rivers .

          Comments about Bear 60" Kodiak Recurve Bow:

          This is my second review after shooting the bow for awhile. The more I use it the more I really enjoy the accuracy and beauty of the bow. It is really a work of art and function. I'm ordering another one to keep encased for future times while my original will get all the bumps and wear from usage. For me, as I have a fondness for vintage Bear products, this bow is as good as any custom made.

            Comments about Bear 60" Kodiak Recurve Bow:

            I've been collecting and buying vintage Bear bows for some time, and have a '59 Kodiak. When this bow came out in the Bear catalog, I checked 3-Rivers site several times a day until they listed it and I immediately placed an order. In less than a week I had my bow. My first impression was that it was lighter and more sleek than the orginal but very well balanced. The craftsmanship is outstanding. From tip to tip this is a well finished product. The wood leather-covered grip felt like it was sculpted to fit my hand and the light weight and balance of the strung bow was noteworthy. I'm currently shooting Black Widow and Tomahawk longbows and this Kodiak will hang with them both in terms of looks and smooth shooting. The only negative was the string noise before I got it tuned out. It appears to like arrows in the 10 grain per pound range for quietness. I was shooting 400 gr. 500 spine carbon shafts at about 44lb at 29.5 inches and it quieted down when I switched to a 1916 heavier aluminum. I was using beaver strip silencers, which I suspect need to be changed to a different type. The bow was so accurate that I was not worried about getting more of the sound out for now. For some unexplained reason, I like shooting this bow more than my more expensive ones. I am planning on making it my #1 bow for 3-D competitions this Spring. This review was more about how the bow feels in hand and I'm sure someone will post a more technical report soon. This bow works perfect for me.
