Title: long draw on a Super Kodiak
Post by: sticksnstones on August 12, 2011, 09:42:00 PM
Anyone drawing over 31" shoot a Super Kodiak much? For the money it seems like a nice bow to have on hand but I wonder how the 60" bow would stack on me?

In once owned a 60" Bear one piece Super Kodiak. I have a 30" draw length and the SK gave me a bad case of "finger pinch". After 30 minutes of continuous shooting, the side of my index finger closest to the arrow nock.........was very sore!

They made some of the older Super Kodiak's in a 64" length also,that length would be better for your longer draw.Brandon Stahl of Rose Oak bows makes a Super Wildcat which is a copy of the Super Kodiak in both 60" and 64" lengths if you are looking for a new bow.

Stacking and finger pinch would be an issue for you.

Wow I'm really glad I asked! Thanks John for that info about some 64" options, I was thinking used but I'll check out that Super Wildcat anyway!

Had a 50+# Kodiak Mag around 56" +/-. Too much pinch for my 31" draw. Wouldn't call it "stack" as much as "stuck".

Stacking is not a problem but the finger pinch on the 60" gets to me after a bit. I have a 1971 64" model that I love to shoot.
