Kempf Kwyk Styk - Arrived! Pics!

[Over&Under]

I recently purchased a Kwik Styk from a fellow TG'r (froggy) and the USPS delivery confirmation tracking (well worth the $.70) said it arrived in my town this morning, so I am headed home for lunch to check it out!!

Pics to come tonight!!!  This is the first one I have owned, 58" 50@28.  Heard alot of good things about them, so very anxious to try it out!            

Thanks Lanier!

Lanier is a great guy to deal with.

I just recieved a JK Traditiona Kanati from him the other week. Smooth to deal with.

Wow, the bow I have been looking for and now you have it! Good Luck & I am can't wait to hear from you and what you think. If I were you, I would not even shoot the bow, just sell it to me. Good Luck

[Ethan Grotheer]

Congrats!! They seem to be one amazing design. I hope to add one to my collection one day.
Post pics. SOON!

zirnsak - I will put you on the list IF  :D   that happens...

Pics coming!

This bow really is a pleasure to shoot.  The only thing I would change is perhaps get one that is shorter, other than that...Everything they are cracked up to be!

Anyone have advice on brace height, perhaps what you are using?

Thanks

I shoot my 2 56"ers at 7 3/4-8"...but that might be a little higher than most...I'd start at 7 1/4"

Good Luck with it!

I'll also add that I use 10 strand TS-1 on my 58#'er, and and 12 strands on my 63#...SWEET!!

Jake,
That bow likes 7 1/2" to 7 5/8" tops bud. Try a 8 or 10 strand Multicam, pad the loops and watch the horsepower go up... with zero string creep after initial stretch...

I shoot the kwik styks with 7 3/4 + , same as Curt. Nice and quiet, if I go lower, they still shoot but I get a little noise, probably due to my release as much as anything. The 58" models shoot great, the only reason to go shorter would be to clear the rail on a ladder stand, my 58" works fine in a blind.
Welcome to the club.

That sure is a pretty bow!  Congrats!

At 7 3/4"+ there no noticeable change in performance, but a noticeable "quietness" to my bows.

But all bows are a little different as are we...

[JC]

If it had been 7-10#'s heavier I would have bought it....maybe someday I'll find one to try.

[Shawn Leonard]

I ran mine at 7 3/4"s to almost 8"s. It was way quieter and as Curt said, no noticeable change in performance. Shawn

[Red Boar]

Sweet...like the arrow carving.    

[rustyspike]

Really nice looing Bow.

Grats.....

Awesome looking bow! I am glad you love it, I held Curt's in Albany a few weeks ago but he is LH. FYI, I called and added my name to the waiting list today. Jack's a great guy to talk to. Good Luck and have fun.

[joe skipp]

7-7/14" seems to be the sweet spot but every shooter is different.

Keep the Faith JC....still looking...

[Gator1]

Jake: congrats bud.  
     


I was fortuante to find a 56" Kwyk Styk... Have only shot a dozen arrows this winter... I'm going to raise the brace on it per all advice...

[Over&Under]

Thanks everyone!  I have it around 7 3/4 right now with a SBD string, and it is pretty quiet and still seems to spit the arras out pretty well.  Have a little more tuning to go.

Lanier, I will give one of those stings a try.

Great bows!
