For those of you who will be attending the Compton Rendezvous on 6-20-22, here are some of the bows we'll have at our booth for you to try. Some are recurves and some longbows. We should have a few more by shoot time. See you there. :wavey:

Those are some fine bows! :D

You went and did it now Ron. I said as long as you didn't have any recurves I was safe. Can you please sell them all before I get there on Fri.?LOL. I have been looking forward to shooting one of your bows for some time now. See you there!

i do hope there are lefties in the bunch
-
No lefties in that bunch! Safe again, less Ron's selling one of his own bows.

I'm jealous. I sure would like to try out a Scout.
-
Wow! I'm only bringing one Shrew.
-
I think I spy my new bow second in from the right!! Man those Tamo Veneers came out beautiful. Great job Gregg cant wait to shoot it!!
-
Oh also I will have my wifes bow with me for you guys to put out for kids and women to try out. Oh course that is if you want it there or have room for it. Looks like your table will be pretty full of bows this year.
-
I already shot it for you Tim. I decided to keep it. :thumbsup:
Gregg
-
Well can I at least shoot it so I know what I will be missing? Please Gregg!! :pray:

You're asking the wrong guy :rolleyes: :readit:

See my post on pg 1, listing the bows in the pic. Still working on lefties.
-
Dont give them mine...I have one on order!!! LOL :wavey:
-
Come on Ron. What are you going to do have Gregg put a shelf on the opposite side so you can keep it for yourself? :thumbsup:
-
Tim, I'm eyeing that one up myself. Have to see the poundage. :bigsmyl:
-
Mike, it is a 58" 53#@28" Scout. I ordered that bow last year and Gregg just got it done for me. :thumbsup:
-
I can see another bid starting.
-
Great bunch of bows there Folks. Gregg you build a hec of a bow! They shouldn't last too long. Good Luck at Compton.
-
Think I will swing buy, been thinking about a Shrew!!!! :D
-
A 56" Classic Hunter? Not on the website! I just ordered a 54"er ... and now I have to ask Ron to change my order AGAIN! Well that's what you get Ron for making us wait so excruciatingly long! I am old and don't know if I can last it out ... dave2old

Dave,
The 56" Classic Hunter is a SWEEEEEEET bow. Ron and Gregg decided to try something for us "long draw" folk and this one is as smooth as silk to 32+". Mine is 59#@32", and will be quite the hammer in the woods this fall.
-
Thanks, Bob. I've already put in my order change to Ron, assuming Gregg hasn't already started the 54". Frankly I'd take just about any Shrew I could get my hands on to ease this itch. These days, a new bow is about all I get excited about, and as all here know, the long wait is a killer. Dave
-
What are the green limbs on the far left?
Brian

Brian,
That's a light gray. It does have a look of green, but its really just thinned black stain on actionboo.
Gregg

Here's a left hand Super Shrew Deluxe for you lefty's to try. It's a 60" 55#@ 28" Super Shrew Carbon. Bamboo core, carbon on the outside, with Bacote riser and overlays.
We'll also have a LH 54" Shrew Classic Hunter with Brown Curly Birch veneers, 51#@ 28"

I expect it will be more of a ax than a hammer as you'll probably cut down more trees than deer, but hey, it's not the bow. :D
