Title: Bear Kodiak Year?
Post by: TURKEYFOOTGIRL on February 22, 2013, 08:53:00 PM

Curious what year bow this is?  Has a serial # 5L3727.  60" 50#  What is the going rate of a bow like this in great condition with a dozen cedars in the box all with 4 blade green razor heads, a bear spring quiver and a vintage glove.  All items appear to to have been bought  together  and not used much since.
Thanks in advance and sorry I forgot to take pics.

Value is hard to say. Whatever someone will pay is the answer.
Condition, weight and length are the key to pricing. There are shooters and there are museum pieces and everything in between.
Some woods used were very striking and buyers, including myself will pay a premium for such bows.
$200-$600 is the wide range these days depending on the above examples and the right buyer at the right time.

Confused yet?........ Enjoy!
