Kota Bows
« on: March 20, 2009, 08:05:00 PM »
I saw the Kota Prairie Swift review in TB Magazine.  Wanting a good one piece.  Anyone have a Kota and could you share your thoughts?  Thanks, Jerry

Some pic's of my Kota Kill-ums...

The Kill-ums are quick but can be somewhat loud (need more time tuning)...I'm playing around with brace height and it has helped.

Bacote and Birds-eye maple (AKA "Spider) from all the eyes:
 

 

Cocobolo w/Ebony flare and Curly/Spalted Myrtle limbs:
 

Love this photo...looks like the riser is glowing:
 

Favorite photo...
 

Pronghorn Antelope on the Coco/Myrtle...Bacote on the other:
 

Tim is a great guy and you can't go wrong!!!

Ok-I will post some pics of the Prairie Fire.  Since you asked Josh.  Not that I don't love showing it off.  Most beautiful bow I have seen(If I may say so myself).  Cocobolo/ grey dymondwood riser with myrtle limbs.  58" 52#@28".

 
 
 

Needing to go up in weight so I am afraid I might be putting this one up on the classifieds soon:(

Our local shop has a used Kota on the wall that I am having trouble getting off my mind!  Great bows!
