If someone was interested in picking up a Raven Recurve, what would one do?

Sergio, that is hands down, the nicest, coolest looking bow I have ever saw!!! If it shoots half as good as it looks, and it should, it will be a world class shooter! Excuse me while I wipe the drool from my chin. Sam.

Sergio, I just got off the phone with Jack.Told him to change my order for another KWYK STYK to a RAVEN. Said he hasnt built many with the static limbs but he likes them. I have a couple months till he starts mine. Cant wait!!! Let me know how it shoots if ya dont mind. Im sure it shoots great.Great looking bow you got. Good luck, Randy.

Hi Gord;
              I believe you know that this bow shoots even better than it looks. I chose the all black woods to go with the " Raven" theme. If you order one let me know and I can have my friend tony checker the grip for you.Personally i think Jack should build them all black! My next set of limbs will be black glass.
           As for any more Pics , thats it for now. Thanks to all for your nice comments.

Serigo yes I agree he should only build them all Black ,, People ask how do they shoot , well I shot the First prototype limb and wow smooth very fast and zero hand shock,and very stable those limbs draw like a much longer bow , a true home run ! For those that don't know Serigo helped Jack with the desighn of those Static limbs , good Job !!  :thumbsup:    :notworthy:

Hi all, I popped over to Jack's last Thursday to show him the Kwik Styk I bought off TG and he showed me a Raven that was just about finished.  Looked like black & white ebony riser, not sure what the limbs were.  Shot it and....wow, compared real close to the Styk, it's a screamer and smooth to boot. My name comes up in a couple of months and now that I have a Styk, my order will be for a Raven with both recurve and long bow limbs. Nice to live so close to him.
cheers, Dale
