On an archery bear hunt in ID 5 or 6 years ago my outfitter had a short little recurve bow hanging up. I started asking questions about it since I’d never seen anything like it. I found out that it was a KT44 Mag built by a man named Kiko Tovar. Kiko had since passed away, but I couldn’t get the bow off my mind. I shot it very well and loved the feel. I shot it well enough that the outfitter tried to get me to carry it on my last several days of hunting and kill another bear with it.
When I returned him to OK I started hunting for one of my own, and after several months I found one with a second set of limbs. I shot it for a few years before I went hard core into training wheels again. I decided this year that it’s time to break it back out and try to finally draw blood with it. I pretty sure I can get it done.
Any of you own or shoot one of Kiko’s bows? They’re as short as I’ve ever seen. I believe the KT44M is 44” unstrung. It’s perfect for a blind or in a tree stand. I’ll try to get some pics of mine up for folks to look at if they’ve not seen one. I’d love to hear some other stories about these things if you’ve got them.
