They were mainly made in lower weights. They are nice.

According to the 1965 catalogue - Kodiak Specials were only available in 25 to 50 pounds.

Now I understand the factory would take "special orders" for heavier bows, but short of finding of those, 50# is the best you're gonna do.

I have a 1966 kodiak special and it is 55#. The darn limb is warped and I have never shot it.
