Looking for some comments from owners or shooters of Kota longbows or the Killum recurve.

Can't help you with longbow, but I've owned three Kota Kill-um bows.  Shoot great, one of the smoothest shooting bows I've owned.  Tim Finley is a great guy to deal with and really tries hard to make sure you get exactly what you want.

Here's a Prairie Predator I got off the classifieds. It's a good shooter.

I have owned both the Killum and Prairie Nomad.  Both were great bows!  Well made and shot great.  Probably should have kept them!

I picked up a good used D-shaped Kota longbow off the PBS auction last year 62” 72#@28” that shoots heavy arrows very well.  Tim says it is older technology, but it is a smooth shooting bow.  Kota has been a bow of interest to me for years and a 3 piece D/R is particularly interesting.

I'm sure I have two of the best bows around. The Kanati is the faster of the two. I have a tough time every fall deciding which to take to the dance.
