Title: Bigfoot Yeti?
Post by: buckracks7 on December 18, 2013, 09:56:00 PM
I see lots of feed back on the Sasquatch SS, but anyone shooting the Yeti? If so, tell me about it.

Atually Jim.... I haven't got a whole lot of these out there yet. It actually surprized me too. I thought they would sell like hot cakes...   :dunno:  

Here's a little feed back for you on the last one i sent out in June....

Larry this is the newer TD recurve model Yeti that Kirk started working on back in Dec. 2012 or sooner I believe?
My bow is #4 of this style, the older Yeti was a one piece R&D longbow I think & he might still have them in the line-up I don't know?

Larry, it shoots real nice, very dead in the hand, not to loud & truly a fast bow built for someone with a shorter draw length to gain them max performance!
No problem at all with finger pinch at my draw length & the limbs pull surprisingly even & smooth.

With that said, I just got it so I'm just starting the tune & tinker process. So things should just get better, it takes me some time to really get to know a new bow. I think it's going to be a great hunting bow for all situations.

I have a LH one that is 52" and 42#.  I originally bought it for a friend who had a sick relative that wanted to shoot a lightweight bow, and then I used it for a few weeks as a post-op therapy bow.  It handled my 29" draw length easily and spit the arrows out pretty quick for a shorter bow.  If I needed another bow as a blind bow, I would not have it up for sale.  Kirk gets a lot of performance out of a small package in these bows.

Lord knows i wasn't using you for a reference Ryan. All i was doing was posting the comments that you had deleted from the original Yeti thread....

You can build a real nice product and make lots of folks real happy.....But unfortunately there are a few folks out there you can't make happy no matter how  hard you try.....

These are great little bows designed for a shorter draw length. I put the same high quality craftsmanship into these little guys that i do all my bows.

But....Keep in mind...When i build a draw length specific custom bow for someone. There are no refunds if you change your mind about your purchase two weeks after receiving it......

 Sincerely, Kirk

KIrk does not build a bow that is not first class. I shot a Yeti when he first developed them and love the bow. I own a Sasquatch onepiece recurve and it is a fantastic bow that I would never sell.

God bless, Steve
