Title: Bear 59 kodiak
Post by: Lee Lobbestael on October 05, 2020, 07:58:21 AM

Kinda a random question here, but how wide is a 59 kodiak? I know they are a little narrower than most recurves.
Thanks

Max width of limbs = 1.54”. Max width of handle = 1.33”.

Long Barrel Colt, I also have the reissue 59er and really like it.  Outstanding bow and a piece of history brought back.

I was born and raised in Palestine Texas. Feel free to drop in if you're ever up this way. Probably better sometime when everything's not burning up!
