Riser length on Kanati and Thunderchild
« on: December 26, 2011, 02:59:00 AM »
Anyone know the riser length on the Kanati? I hear the Big Jim Thunderchild is 12". Can someone confirm that too.
Thanks

The kanati varies with who it is made for but I go 16-18"

My 56" Thunderchild is only 10".
If you don't like cops, next time you need help, call Al Sharpton

10" that's it? That's probably shorter than the riser on a Shrew Classic Hunter in 54". Anyone shoot a Shrew CH?
Thanks

My Kanati is 16 1/2" and it is SWEET! I keep trying, but I still haven't found a bow that I can shoot as well. Oddly enough, the Shelton I just bought comes the closest, and it is an entirely different kind of bow. The Kanati still beats it, though.
Kanati 58" 44# @ 28" Green glass on a green riser
Bear Kodiak Magnum 52" 45# @ 28"
Bodnik Slick Stick longbow 58" 40# @ 28"
Bodnik Kiowa 52" 45# @ 28"
Kanati 58" 46# @ 28" R.I.P (2007-2015)
Self-made Silk backed Hickory Board bow 67" 49# @ 28"
Bear Black Bear 60" 45# @28"

The thunder child is 11.5" for a 56" bow.

Centaur, the fadeouts taper so fine that it is hard to determine the end at times.
