I'd convince (its a fantasy right?) Brandon Stahl at Rose Oaks to make a LH version of his takedown that accepts his Bear Limbs. The bow would be Macassar and Curly Maple. It would be an A-size riser.

Kirk - are you serious? Know where I can find a set of complete latches? [/b]

You bet I'm serious. That would be a very cool project. No help on the Bear latches though. Have you tried contacting Bear Archery? if we cant come up with them I'll bet we could replicate them..... with Bears permission of course.

Warning!... this could get a little pricey to pull off and do it right. Half the fun will be replicating the Hex 6 limbs.

Keith be sure to post pics of that when it is finished. My Static Tip Limbs on South's hybrid riser make a great combination! Lots of neat ideas/dreams guys!

I got it ordered from Kirk. 64" Sasquatch T/D recurve, 45# @ 28". Triple carbon with foam core and Black Walnut riser with ipe I-beam.

I have contacted Bear Archery and bought the latches used on Mag risers. However, the woodie risers have a metal piece glued to the riser. They would not provide me this part. Obviously they have them because they make the new TDs from them.

Maybe...they don't want folks to replicate this riser?

Since nothing is Perfect, my 60" Super Shrew is probably close as it gets for me. Its as stable as my 68" inchers, a blind that is too small for this bow is too small for me too.

I havent shot'em all, but its the best all around hunting/fun shooting bow I've ever shot. It does everything well!

The only improvement would be a T/D, and I dont need one sooo..

The 62" Kanati I just received. Lower than normal grip fits my hand like a glove. Bow draws as smooth as butter and shoots great.

Now I need to do myself a favor and stay off the classifieds lest I find another one for a backup.

Is that the 62" one you just got from Elkken ?. That must be a shooter like every kanati I have come across. That grip really looks nice from the pic you sent. Congrats to you Mr "CJ". IMHO, the best Hybrid longbow for the money going and a heck of a fellow building them.

I would just put an Order in to Craig Akin.....

My perfect bow is the new Legacy series Tomahawk. I am a big fan of T-hawks and I will have this one in a few weeks.
