I've been making the same drive home from work for 33 years now and today was the best trip yet. Probably had something to do with talking to Jason about a new creation. She'll be a green and Bubinga combo (Bear retro) but instead of white tips and riser overlays he'll apply Bubinga and black. Will be 47# at my 28 and 58". This will be my first build as I've always bought used. EFA will get my next call as Don will craft me a matching green and brown Cochise. I would love to hear from Kanati owners with some feedback! Is it October yet? Possum

I think you made a good choice.
My 60 incher was as good as any forward handle hybrid I have had.Loved that bow.

Love the EFAs as well.Thats gonna be a sweet combo.

Try an SBD 8 strand bowstring with wool puffs sometime on that and see what you think.

Congrats and good luck with her

I've got a 58" 45# with a low grip. I run a 4 arrow EFA on mine. I've had it since 2011. I have been through a few other bows, but I have never felt like I could even entertain the idea of selling my Kanati. It's faster than most of my recurves, and is crazy dead after the shot. I shoot three under and it's quiet too.

Mine is very plain and basic, and is wearing plenty of battlescars and bruises from hard use. But it's still a great bow. I bought a used Helms Deep to replace it, and it's a beauty. But it ain't got nothing on my plain ole Kanati as far as performance.

Here's mine. **Notice the wind checker cotton stuck on the velcro of the EFA quiver straps.

Well it is about time ol' Possum head get him a fancy new bow!

As the Supreme Leader and Captain of the F.R.O.G Team I was tired of seeing Scout miss so often (every shot), may be the Kanati will solve that issue.

Besides the worn out excuses on why he can't get no new weapon "need new baby shoes, water cooler went outlast night, wife needs to go to Disney", DISNEY! for crying out loud you a F.R.O.G member or not!

Hope it get here soon, seasons about upon us!

Congrats on the new purchase! Can’t wait to try it out

And about that wife of yours...she was let on the Team and I used that term loosely. To be our PR spokesperson, but she’s has turned out to be similar to your shooting, “Unreliable”!
(P.S you might not want to share that last statement with her, if you know what I mean :rolleyes: )

They are easy to tune and make quiet. I recently switched wood arrows on mine.
I notice more good shots and tighter groups with the longbow and wood arrows vs the recurves and carbon arrows I had been using.

I don't know what that means. The bow was sitting on a box of matches to level it. Here is another.

Great shooting bows, enjoy!

Possum Head · « **Reply #13 on:** February 02, 2018, 07:00:00 PM »

Nice shot Tedd love those arrows! Is your bow the 60"?

Picked up a used 56" 47# er about a year and a half ago and it quickly became my favorite ( I probably have twenty plus bows). Jason couldn't have been more responsive or helpful with my questions.

Rough Run · « **Reply #15 on:** February 02, 2018, 07:32:00 PM »

My experience is similar to mahantango's. I missed getting on the build list late last summer before it filled up - so when a used 56" came up, I bought it. It went un-shot for close to 5 months as hunting season was underway, so I have only really been shooting it for about 3 weeks. I love it. The grip is the best I have found for my preferences, and it just feels good. Jason answered every question I asked, and quickly. I'll be on the build list for another, and soon.

I bought a Kanati used. A 60" green meanie. The craftsmanship is amazing and it is the most forgiving bow I own. It really is a pleasure to shoot.

Several years ago I had Jason build me a Kanati and after owning it for a while I made the mistake of letting my hunting buddy shoot it. Well after some time in a moment of weakness I let him convince me to sell it to him. I recently tried to buy it back but he wouldn't hear of it, soooo with that in mind just last night Jason and I traded emails and i am now on his build list for this coming July.

South MS Bowhunter · « **Reply #18 on:** February 03, 2018, 01:37:00 PM »

Oh no Possum your reckless posting of a new Kanati has contributed to the soon departure of $$$ from Fred!

I hope you’re proud of yourself

Possum Head · « **Reply #19 on:** February 03, 2018, 06:23:00 PM »

Come on Supreme, If Fred hadn't bought a Kanati it would have been something else. Fred is a bow addict that needs to come to terms with his obsession! Just glad I got on the list before him

Does this make me a good bow salesman
