I wasnt aware 67 1/2 SK's ever had a "factory bushing"?? Like it says on the auction.

I thought that the bushing wasnt standard until 71 ?

It was an option from the startup of the Super Kodiak. Not uncommon for them. Cody, you might have a tough time finding a "new" 67.5 SK ! CKruse

the 67 1/2 I grew up shooting had a factory bushing and an olive drab coat to boot. It now has a floppy lower limb or I would still be a one bow guy...

My 1969 SK has a bushing for a quiver.

Interesting CKruse. That was the first I'd seen with a bushing in a 67 1/2 but I know a lot of options were available on bows I didnt pay attention to then.

I just tend to shy away from them, neither of mine has one and prefer the "plain" ones that way I know they werent installed later.

Nothing "wrong" with bushings and have seen several on 68/69 ones but my first on a first year edition.

Always cheking those three years out when one is for sale. In a few months Ill be looking for one between my two in weight too.

Good luck, Cody.
