Title: I hate my Shrew......
Post by: Louutah on February 19, 2008, 03:59:00 PM
Had alittle time this afternoon to get into the backyard and do some shooting, still 12 inches of snow, but the sun was out and it was a beautiful day.......that is until my Shrew decided to turn like a mongoose on my quickly dwindling supply of POC's.....
Does Ron offer any kind of an arrow warranty on those Sitka Supreme's I bought from him?....I'm afraid to shoot those.....

I've had the same problem with some carbon arrows from mine.  Let me know if Ron feels bad and wants to replace them.

High dollar kindling! That is why I like ugly arrows.  Never happens to me but when it does that ugly arrow will be hung on the wall and displayed with pride.  Good shooting!

Ya gotta shoot ugly arrows with a Shrew.  Says so right in the fine print. "... will not be held responsible for busting nocks, splitting arras, or shaving feathers with your Shrew."  

Good thing most of the arras I make aren't all that pretty...

Man, I would not put up with a bow that ate arras' like that.  Ship it to me.  I'll make it learn some manners.  Might even trade ya somthin fer it.   :p

A bad bow is like a bad women,,one is never enough. LOL
Title: Re: I hate my Shrew......
Post by: JasonW on February 19, 2008, 08:41:00 PM
I would teach it to scatter arrows all around the target much more affordable...but much less enjoyable!

Good shooting. You may want to slide the quiver
down into the fadeouts "closer to the handle"
it's in the working limb now. That is some great
shooting and a pretty bow.

There is a lot to be said for multiple spots on a target butt.
Using a different spot each shot might make you a Shrewd Dude.

Now, step back to 10 yds and see how you do....LOL, good shooting.

That's a beautiful photo, and sure is good PR for Shrew.

good shot.

You must not have read the fine print on Ron's instruction sheet he sends with every bow. Most of us "in the know" Shrew guru's practice at 60-70 yards versus the 25 yards you're working from.   ;)    ;)    :biglaugh:

Ray you just let the cat out of the bag!!  Your supposed to let him at least break a dozen arrows before you tell him our secrets!!  :bigsmyl:

I learned some years ago that investing in several targets is cheaper in the long run than trying to stack arrows in just one-'specially wood arrows (sorry, I don't shoot a Shrew).

Nice shootin', beautiful quiver!
