What Our Customers Say
Love your products! We have had HUNDREDS of youth and adults using your atlatls as part of our programs. By the way, here is a link to a recent TV interview.
Barry Rudesill, Crescent Lake Bible Camp – Wisconsin, Northern
I took my new toy, a Kanakadea, for a maiden test flight today. I’m totally hooked! I even had the neighbors, who had never heard of such an instrument, commenting favorably.
You’ll be hearing more of me soon.
Tom McCort Morristown, OH
I got my atlatl today and it was in great condition, thank you for packing it so well. I used it today at lunch and was shocked at how easy it is to pick up on. Within 30 min, I was hitting a deer taget at 20 yards about 30% of the time.
