My new JK Traditions "Kanati"
« on: October 12, 2008, 07:26:00 PM »
Here are a few pictures of my new JK Traditions "Kanati" longbow, I got in this past Saturday. Pictures doesn't really do it justice.

Riser is Charcoal Dymondwood. Limbs have 2 laminates of bamboo for a core and "flat grain" camo action wood veneers. ($50.00 option)

Specs. are: 60", 56# @ 29", which makes it around 59# @ my draw.

All I can say is this is probley the best bargain in traditional archery! It's well built, quiet, and just hits where you look....Very Quick...EXCELLENT GRIP!...A great hunting bow.

I have put the rubber sure grip on after I took these pictures.

Thanks Jason for getting this built for me....Mike

Great looking bow. I've got one myself(spring camo 58") and I will certainly agree with you on the performance. I really like the camo veneers. Hopefully we can both have a picture soon of our Kanati alongside a deer.

Welcome to the Kanati brotherhood. Absolutely the best buy in bows today! Jason is a great bowyer and a great guy.

That is one sweet looking bow. It just kinda disappears against that tree. Talk about natural camo!

Good luck with her. I hope to be posting pics of mine with a deer this fall too. I haven't had a chance to shoot at a live target yet, but plan to change that soon.

Mike, Glad to see that you got your new Kanati. It is definately a great looking bow. Glad that I got my order in when I did I'm sure the wait time will only keep getting longer. John Gerrard AKA Brokenwing

Thanks guys!

Well, after shooting it for a few days...it's definitly a keeper. The rascal just flat out shoots! No matter what arrow. I guess that is because it's cut a tad past center.

Reminds me of the Griffins I owned. I really like the forward handle bows. Now all Jason needs to do is come out with a 3 piece,,,then I'll order another or two.   :D  

Thanks again Jason, you build a heck of a longbow!   :wavey:

Great bow.  Jason sure makes a shooter.  had the pleasure to play with one once.  Just did not have the $ to take it home.
