Title: Raineman "fixes" my '62 Kodiak.
Post by: Migra Bill on May 10, 2009, 10:54:00 PM

I put the word out that I was in the market for a 62 Kodiak. I got this one from Cam.

Unfortunately it had these holes on it.

Well. my motto is if life gives you lemons; make lemonade. And if live gives you a bow with holes; make a kwikee kwiver bracket.

So- I let Jim take a drill to my lovely '62.

It was hard for me to let go.

Half way thru

Inserts are in.

Bracket is on.

Quiver is on.

Thanx Jim. Job well done.

That's some scary stuff there.  Good use of existing holes.

See how crazy things can get when I'm sober?

You must have lost your mind to let me violate your Kodiak in such ways. Or am I the one who's mind has taken a trip somewhere else?

I can't believe you trust me that much..   :scared:

Seriously though, I'm glad you are happy with it. If you ever aren't happy with it, theres a spot on my rack.

Your bow looks ready for action, Bill!  :thumbsup:

Ron, Rich couldn't bear to watch. He was, however, waiting outside for the drilled out grains of rosewood so he could smoke 'em.
