Can you tell us how you configured the shelf on the bow.

Looks awesome

My first bow was a Kodiak Hunter, but moved up to a Super Kodiak a year later (1971 I think). Great shooting bow, I used Bear Magnum 308 arrows. Dang I miss those days..

Angus the side plate was on it when I got it. The white thing you are seeing is a home made feather rest. I made up a jig for my little chopper that I could get consistent feathers out of my scraps. Then I stack 3-5 on a piece of 3M double stick tape. I do have to adjust my nock point but the rest gives me a much more forgiving release than shooting straight off the shelf.
I've moved to a feather rest on almost all my trad bows with the exception of my selfbow and an original Silvertip that still wears the plastic Bear arrow rest like Paul intended when he built it.


The chances they come, and the chances they go.
But the time. You don't get that back.

Great job. Been thinking about getting back into traditional shooting.
