Jack Kempf Raven owners

[elkken]

I recently acquired one of Jack's Raven LB's and it has a groove in the  arrow rest near the riser, perhaps for vane clearance. I had an Acadian Woods bow and it had a similar groove and it was made that way. Anyone know it the Raven comes that way or is this an after bowyer addition ??

Many thanks, Ken

I have one of Jack's Raven in a recurve and yes it has a groove in it. My KWYK STYK has it as well.

Thanks Randy ... no big deal, I will just set it up to shoot something other than my Axis shafts, those skinny shafts tend to slip into the groove ... I can shoot woodies too, or just build out the side plate a bit .

I just put some velcro on the shelf and side plate and as soon as it stops raining in Washington, maybe by June, I can finish the set up

Grip fits really nice so I am anxious to give her a try.

I have a Little Grizzly and Kwykstyk and the shelf is like that. All of his bows are like that.

Ken,  if it shoots anything like my Raven you will love it. Jack knows how to make a great hunting bow give me a shout if you don't like it.

Will do Randy, it's right at the upper limit on weight for my old bones so I'll see how it goes.
