Love my Sas SS that Kirk built for me last fall. Beautiful Macassar Ebony riser with Bocate fang and mosaic accents.
58", 57 lbs at 28" (I pull a tad over 29") with carbon and maple limbs. Fantastic grip - Kirk nailed it!
Super fast and smooth!
After shooting it through the Winter (as weather would allow), I noticed some whitish "marks" show up on the riser. Nothing major, and only visible under direct light, I was still confused by what was causing these marks.
I called Kirk and he said to send the entire bow back so he could examine (in fact, he insisted for me to send it back). Turns out that these white marks were what he referred to as checking. He totally refinished the bow (now using Thunderbird on his bows instead of the Krystal product).
I just received her back yesterday and must say that I am impressed, once again.
Some may feel that a warranty repair is indicative of the quality of the workmanship of the bowyer. In this case, I found Kirk as friendly and easy to work with as he was when he was originally building my bow. His insistence to make things right was comforting and greatly appreciated.
Well done, Kirk! You're a class act!
