I'm at 11 months for a Shrew and now it is really getting tough because I am going to have to make decisions soon.

I've waited a year before and that's no fun. I'd never shot this particulars bowyers bow until my new one arrived. Didn't like it all that well and turned around and sold it here in the classifieds.

Not trying to scare you, you'll like your Kajika. I've owned two Mojostiks and I've had a Kajika for a few weeks now. Very fast, quiet, stable and no hand shock. One of the best deals out there from any bowyer IMHO.

The Kajikastik is a nice looking bow I would like to have one myself but have several bows on order and risk death from my wife when they all start showing up my mail. My longest bow out is a 56" Centaur Carbon Elite I have 8-10 months to go on it waiting sucks but I ordered a 54" Morrison ILF carbon/foam core longbow and A&H 56" one piece to help pass the time.  :D

Jim and I have been hunting a bit together lately and I must say, that takedown is a beauty! He uses one for carp shooting   :scared: . So much for no scent! lol We got nice and slimy the other night. My boat stunk up my whole garage! He said he is switching to a wet shot or the no glove because his tabs were slimy, imagine the leather grip on that thing! He put a lot of work and thought into that design and it is a real neat bow. Few bowyers match the beauty of the wood he finds either. He hand pics all of it.

I quit smoking and saved the money to buy that bow, it was my top pick of 3 different bows out there! had a chance to shoot a mojostik and a voodoostik and loved them but wanted a 3 pc takedown,so I ordered recurve limbs and longbow limbs,best of both worlds!!!

Way to go on quitting smoking jimmerc! In my state (MA) they are up around $7 a pack!!! Thankfully, I don't have that addiction but hopefully it will be an incentive for others by realizing what great bows they could afford if they quit!   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

Jim,

You won't be disappointed JD makes a beautiful and quick bow.  Very quiet to.

I bought a used Mojostik and then when he came out woth the new TD I had to have one.  I was on of the first he made with foam core.  It is smooth as butter!
