Kohannah Elite

HATCHCHASER · December 11, 2008, 01:33:00 PM

Just got a new Kohannah bow prototype in my hand. It is a 3 peice longbow with the same profile as the Fury. 15" riser 64" and 48@28". I have been after Bob for 3 years to make a take down and he finally did. He nailed it. Deflexed riser, perfect weight, smooth draw, dead in the hand, silent and quick. He dosen't have it on his website yet but he is taking orders. I know he's about 12 to 14 weeks out right now. This bow is a keeper!

too bad I have to send it back.

I'll try and get a few pics. This one is a plane jane but I think he is making a fancy one to put on his website.

Very nice!

Added a few pics. Didn't take long to find an arrow. That is one bare shaft and two fletched.

Looks like a shooter!

Bob makes some nice bows for sure! Did he say what woods he use? Actionboo cores?

Nice looking bow!

I've got two of Bobs bows and I'll testify to the quality. He makes a great product and is a great person to deal with. I like the looks of that bow although I don't normally like take-down longbows. From that grouping I'd say she shoots pretty sweet for ya!

Brown diamondwood riser with stained boo limbs. I've shot a lot of bows and this one is right at the top. Bob is also in my top five of bowyers I have dealt with. The Elite is gonna be in my stable soon.

Tell Bob I said hello. I bought one of his Windwalker longbows many years ago. I used to own a sporting goods store in Quincy, MI.

That was the first custom bow I ever purchased.

I purchased my first custom from him as well and would have kept it if my draw length hadn't grown.

This bow might end my quest for the grail. Problem is it is just a demo :( . Maybe I'll have to wait on a fancy one..

I boxed the bow up last night and made prep to send it back to Bob this morning. Then I decided to make a call and see if I could talk him out of it. Well whataya know, that call saved me some shipping charges

.

This is the best shooting 3 peice I have shot yet. Bob has that fancy one almost done and will have some pics on his website. I know he is gonna be at some shows at the first of the year. You need to shoot this one.
