I know some of you guys have been busy collecting and refinnishing. Heres your chance to display some of that fine art from yesterday.
I'll start with a few items that recently came my way.
60K 60" 52#
62K 60" 47#
Turkey Calls came from Mike Breslin (MJB here on TG) They are truly works of art but I plan on getting them wet and dirty next spring. For now, I'll set them on the shelf and get them down every once in a while to annoy my wife. Thanks Mike

... reminded me of my Jack Howard Gamemaster Classic. CKruse
Thats a beauty Cam, do you shoot your Deluxe? I've shot mine, but not alot. I actually shot it a little this morning.
Bjorn, is the bow on the far left the new edition?
Trap
Trap, it showed lots of signs of being shot and hunted with. I've strung it and drawn it, but that's it. I had a 64" 52# 1967.5 Super Kodiak black beauty blow up on me at full draw with no warning. I was a little scraped up and heartbroken, but survived with both eyes intact. I know it can happen with any of them, but that cured me from wanting to shoot anything questionable! :eek: CKruse
I remember that thread, that would be scary.
Because of all the stories I was reluctant to shoot my deluxe for a couple days. A couple half draw affairs and I slowly crept back to full draw. I find myself checking it alot more while shooting it than any others.
Trap
Hey guys... Now they are some NICE bows!! and very nice pictures.. Mike
A super nice 62 I just added to my collection (http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn42/bearkeeper/62.jpg)
Trap:
that bow is exactly(RH 60" 45#) like the one I found in Wis.....the guy had been using as a carp bow. Maybe it was CKruse.
The one I had went to the guy in Omaha last year.
This one came from Austin Texas Ron. I didnt know it was butcherblock when I bought it.
The guy I bought it from gave another fella a Kodiak Magnum for it to keep him from turning it into a carp bow about 10 years ago. Apparently he had the Mag hanging on the wall and traded up for a better wall hanger and the Mag became a carp bow.
Nice bow Mike, I love the 62Ks. They look great and shoot even better.
Trap

Trap
Trap
Both 66", yellow is 42# @28,purple heart is 47# @28
Came from a Pasadena roving archer, she is 96 yrs old.The 47# had camo limb socks and the quiver mounted,that old lady rocked when she was younger.The 42# is factory original except for the feather rest and plate from a certain fellow addict.The 47# was greyish green and had a really bad refinish, I was amazed at what was under the grey.
