I know questions like this have been asked multiple times. I am just looking for opinions, but if anyone has numbers that compare the two that would be awesome. Please help me out a little.
Would you buy a Martin Savannah for $300 or a JK Traditions Kanati for $350? Assume the bows are in similar condition and have similar specs.
Sorry to be a hassle. I am looking to purchase the first bow that I will own and $300 is not easy for me to give.
Thanks
Jared.
a buddy of mine stopped by a couple days ago with a new Kanati that he had just got. It is extremely nice, i shot a half dozen shots through it and it was very smooth and quiet. If I had an extra $350, I would have one on order already!
I was wanting a Kanati a while back and came across a Beeler longbow and couldn't pass it up. I love it and am very glad I got it. There's one in the classifieds for a good price, I think around $300.00. That being said, I think you couldn't go wrong with a Kanati either. I've heard a lot of great things about them.
Two for the Kanati.
Anybody else?
I've owned a Kanati and shot a Savannah a few days......I would go with the Kanati.

Very, very much the truth. Kanati hands down in my book (still have my Kanati)
Kanati. Very nice bow.
Vote for kanati
I've never owned either but I'll still vote for the Kanati.I'm done with production bows.
Kanati bows are Quick-quiet-beautiful-light-great craftsmanship.I don't think you would be disappointed in one.
Thanks everybody. It seems unanimous.
Kanati....>>>----->!!!
Another Kanati Fan, fit finsih outstanding, great design.
kanati kanati kanati!!! trust me on this!
kanati I have one and have two does down already with it this year.
I own a Kanati and love it! Have shot a Savannah a few times as well. I would go with the Kanati hands down. The performance is great! I took a deer with my Kanati this week. My arrow bouned off a limb so the shot was a bit off. Went right through the bone and stuck the broadhead out the other side. A highway of a blood trail lead me straigt to her. With my little 23" draw that is some power!
savanna , dont waste your good hard money , you can do better!!!
Ahhhhh America. We all get to express our opinion:)
lol right?
Never have seen a Kanati but I can say I like my Savanna.

Great bows KANATI
Boy, I've had both and it would be a tough toss up! The Savannah is surprisingly quick and the Kanati is a smooth shooter.
My guts says it's best to support our local bowyers vs. big production companies.
I have a Kanati and it is a very nice bow as previously noted. However, if this is your first bow I think you are better off with a Savannah at 62". Shorter bows are touchy and can frustrate someone starting out. For a first bow go with the Savannah. The Kanati is in my opinion a nicer bow but the Savannah will be more forgiving and as such a better starter bow. If you can get a Kanati 62" long then go for it.
Anyone have an unstrung pic of the Kanati and Savannah to post for comparison? It would help me in deciding. Also, does anyone know what the riser lengths are on both of them. Thank you.
kanati
the only thing the savanna has over the kanati is you don't have to wait a few months to receive your bow, unless you find a used one
buy the one YOU like the looks of the best, they both shoot very well
The Savannah is one of the best longbows out there designed by Larry Hatfield who is a living legend among bowyers. I have never shot a Katani but I am sure it is a fine bow. I have owned several Savannahs in various weights and would love to have another 60 pounder.
I have owned both a Kanati and a Savannah,both are great.The Kanati is better,trust me.
