The bow turned out nice.  Thanks for the nice words.  Its a lot darker then what shows in the picture and is very attractive.

Jayrod  is a good guy.  I enjoyed getting to know him.

I will be ready to offer the 56" Kodiak River Runner  in January.  I need to build a couple more to finalize the design then we will add some pictures to the web site.  Chad

oh man that 56"er sounds like a real winner for someone with a short 26.5" draw like me.

Thxs Andy I really love this bow it's my first one piece recurve it's such a enjoyable bow to shoot the grip is a 60's style Kodiak grip which fits my big hands great and my wait time for the build was 8 weeks to get it but contact Chad he would be able to give you a closer build time but you won't go wrong if you decide to order one

Great looking bow.  Myrtle is one of my favorite limb woods.

That's quick enough........   :thumbsup:   I think Chad's bows perform with the best and much better than some. Thanks why I have a bunch of them.
