cari-bow tuktu ex
« on: July 17, 2014, 05:12:00 PM »
Anybody shoot one? Did a search not much info. Just looking for opinions and thoughts from those that have shot one. How does the 60" handle 30" draw?
Thanks

Best thing to do to answer your draw length question is to give Abe a call or send him an email...or he might see your question on here and answer it...he did not get the reputation he has by being anything other than totally devoted to customer service, as are virtually all custom bowyers

Abe actually addresses your question rather nicely in his new website, which for me is one of the best out there...again an indicator of his commitment to customer service

Do a search for my recent review of the Tuktu.  It is an awesome awesome recurve.  My draw is a whisker over 29".  I felt the 60" was quite comfortable.  I think 30" would he approaching the latter part of the sweet spot but still quite doable.  If you are seeking additional leeway perhaps go 62"?

I love that bow I shot. One of these days I'll get one similar to it, but with some input on woods.

Abe knows his stuff.

Drawing only 27.5" here, though.

I have a Tuktu EX - received it earlier this year - I draw over 30" so went with a 62" length bow.  While I'm still getting use to it, I'm liking it a lot - smooth on the draw and quiet on release.  I really like the feel of it in hand. The grip is fuller in-hand than say my standard grip BW recurve bow.  Agree on Abe's excellent customer service.
