Canadian Gordon Martiniuk sent me these pics of Bowyer Jack Kempf and this one and only one riser that Jack will ever build. Looks like Wolves...
This is Jack's 52" Kwyk Styk with the fancy riser. I'm going to let Gordon chime in with the details. This is 78 yr old Mr Kempf at the shooting range.
Enjoy the pics....

yes sir a true one of a Kind Kustom Bow , upon arriving at Alberta Traditional Archery Association Dart league Jack Kempf was standing there with a smile on his face he says to me I have somthing to show you ,, He opens his bow case a takes out this bow and says what do you think? Before I could pull out any arrows a couple of other fellows were gathering around to see the new bow, we all got a turn shooting this wild creation, a couple of us were kidding Jack that those were wolves carved into riser not bears But he assured us they were indeed Bears<
Stunning :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
WOW....78 years young and still going strong, doing what he loves to do.....seeing the picture sure does a heart good.
Pretty cool bow too.

Here's Jack's new Bow , he hasn't seen it yet ! checkering and finish by my friend Tony of " Moose country Recurves" . sorry for the terrible pic, will post better pics tomorrow , before i ship it back to Jack .If he had sent me the limbs, he would be getting a cheque instead of the Bow! smart fella! The riser is Ebony with an Amarilla flare. (http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x132/recurvehunter_2007/P1020080-1.jpg) :notworthy: :notworthy: :clapper: :clapper:
