Title: Kodiak mag or Super mag 48 poll?
Post by: TURKEYFOOTGIRL on August 13, 2014, 08:12:00 PM
If you had to choose between a 52" Kodiak magnum and a Super mag 48 for blind hunting situations which would you choose? I have a 26" draw and shoot two under so stacking shouldn'tbe a issue.

With your draw, either will work, though the mag will be more forgiving and still give you plenty of room in the blind.  For me, neither works very well for my 28-inch draw.  They start stacking pretty good at 27 inches.  I shoot a 56-inch Bear T/D out of a blind.

I shoot both. Definitely prefer the Kodiak Mag. Better handle, more forgiving and easier to shoot, and very accurate for a short bow and very smooth drawing. The Kodiak Mag is at the tops for all my short old bows. I'm at a 27" draw.

I have a pop-up that only the SM48 would work, and that'd be a tight fit. I too shoot both, but for my setup, the SM48 would be my go-to blind bow. For tree stand? Of the two, the KMag.

I would choose the Kmag.  It is plenty short and easy to manage in a blind and more forgiving.

If you're going for a short bow with your 26" draw might as well go for the Super Mag. I like the idea of a short bow & have a KMag; I draw 28.5-29" and that's just enough for the KMag to stack some on me.

I would go for the K-Mag because it is more forgiving and the little bit lower brace height.  At 26" draw, a little extra string time will help.

Thanks everyone for voting. The Kodiak mag won pretty much four to one. Always loved these bows and hope the new ones are top notch like the old ones!
