Gotta give props to Jason Kendall.The "Alpha Kanati " has been born :notworthy: He sent me pics last night after spraying it that "Tore me up from the floor up". We talked back and forth, this and that on what I wanted. Settled into a solid black phenolic riser with some bacote accent stripes. I wanted the solid phenolic for a little extra heft. Went with some gnarly looking Bacote that are as good as any I have laid eyes on. The grip and heel are layered Bacote/Phenolic also. Specs are 58" 54@28 with the new tips he is doing now that open up even better on the longer draws. My thanks to you Jason, this will be one that my son will inherit at some point years down the road. Such a pleasure dealing with him on it. Was sure worth the wait and hope ya'll like it ;) After seeing it, I told him even if it wasn't going to be mine and going to someone else, it is the finest looking one he has put out to date !!! Pics up very shortly.

It's too bad nobody knows if it's a LB, recurve, or hybrid, oh well lol.

Well, it definitely ain't no recurve 'cause the string only touches the string nocks. It's a tossup between a lb and a hybrid, depending on how particular you wanna be.
Personally, I prefer to call mine a r/d longbow. ;) :p
PM'd you Whittler... :thumbsup:
Froggy
Ishootforthrills,
Whatever you want to call it..... they are some shootin son of a guns !!!! :saywhat:

Thank you. At 1st I thought it was a lb hybrid, but then thought maybe a 1pc recurve.
The pics do not show the the whole bow to the end of the limbs.
I will say it is a looker.
I will get some full length pics of it after I recieve it. Also I think I have decided to send it to Dave @ Schafer to have the grip checkered..

Nice bow Froggy!! :clapper:
That is the prettiest BOW I've seen, I think. It goes way beyond just the pretties Kanati. The best part is it will shoot as good or better than it looks!
Congrats, Froggy!
Jason, if you keep this up, you are going to have to quit the day job you know. :clapper:
Hey Buddy :wavey:

You heal up and we will "git r done. :thumbsup: I believe you and Guss would make a Daddy proud !
Froggy
That is a beauty for sure! :thumbsup:
Wow, you'll enjoy shooting and staring at that one.
Nice work Jason!
