Gaff, if they had a model with a bowbolt Id be on it.Theyre very nice.The one I shot was very impresive and the price is right.I wish they made em with exotic wood too.

I thought you were a patriots fan  :D  . The kanati is a nice bow and a great value.  I'm with Izzy, I'd still have mine if it had a bow bolt.  Jason's website has quite a few pics.

Boo limbs stained to match the charcoal riser and a little different overlay pattern that I really like.  I think the finish is one of the best in the business and this is one of the most shootable hybrids I've ever owned.

Jedimaster, that is a looker for sure, I love the charcoal. What are the spec.'s on yours?

I recieved my 58" 51@28 Kanati from Jason about 3 weeks ago and WOW what a bow! Mine is the cocobolo riser with med. brown stained limbs. The grip fits me like an old friends handshake, and the finish is flawless to my eye. Very smooth, stable bow that really makes an arrow scream.

If I could figure out the photobucket thing, I'd post a pic. of mine.

Hey Dave, they are great bows.  I admire Jason for making one design and pretty much perfecting it.  Mine is 58" and 53@28.  Wish it was around 5 pounds lighter.  I was diagnosed with arthritis a few years ago and even though medication has helped I should be shooting less weight.  I love the bow though and it is the only hybrid that I've owned that I can shoot well.  If you can send me some pictures of your bow I can post them for you.

My new 56" Kanati came in the mail tonight Wow its much nicer than I even expected. I am sorry I don't pictures yet and really hate to even take dark in the house pictures because I know they won't do this bow justice. I went with the camo veneers like I have on my Classic Hunter Shrew.Also the frost looking finish on my Kaniti is very nice I like the way it looks never could tell that from pictures I have seen on the net.I have only shot it a few times indoors I can tell its quiet and pretty fast to.

Ok I broke down and took a few pictures they aren't the best the bow looks much better than the pictures but indoor lighting sucks.

What is that camo back, maple or bamboo?
Title: Re: can you show me your KANATI'S???
Post by: Steel on January 20, 2010, 11:27:00 AM
I am not sure but it looks the same as the Shew Classic Hunter Camo I owned. I will get some better pictures next few days I was really happy how the bow turned out I could never see just how well Jason's finish work was in pictures but now I have this bow in my hand I can tell you he is a very good bowyer. Hard to beat this bow for the price I have spent much more $$$$ and got less bow in return than the Kanati offers.

Post by: katie on January 20, 2010, 12:42:00 PM
I will try to fix the size on my pics.  Photobucket is a chore when you live in the stix and have slow speed.  I am lucky to get the page to come up.  Will try!
Great pics everyone!

The green Camo on the limbs is green mnt. action wood cut on an angle to make it look like that, i've been using it for years, sure looks great don't it.  :wavey:

Wow, thanks guys! Shaft Slinger is correct on Steel's bow, its actionwood cut on the bias, its called "Cross Cut" by others.

I am working on one for a customer now with a rosewood handle, a light colored actionboo core and Cross Cut Gray veneers. Its going to be a looker too!

Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap....
