I've shot a couple. Absolutely phenomenal. Very fast , quiet, smooth, no fingerpinch problem at my 27" draw. .... And Brent Rudolph and Mark Baker are really nice guys.

I wont have pictures of mine for a few weeks.  Have you been to their website yet?  They got it up and running a few weeks ago.  It has a photo gallery with a number of Sheepeater pics.

The bows are sweet little powerhouses.  Very unique amongst most bows today.  I agree with everyone above. I like to shoot recurves and longbows (love em all) and now I like to shoot  little statics like my Sheepeater.  My eyes have definitely been opened to the world of short bows in a big way.  Call Brent or Mark and talk with-em.  Good folks!

we shot both of them at the Expo in Boise last weekend.  Might ty fine in all respects.
they both "open" up nicley for you with longer arms but they fit me at 24.5" too well.  i thought Mark should have gien me one to take back and give it a punishment test.  The floppy rest-shelf is novel in modern equipment and Mark says it allows an amazing array of spine weights.  Can't go wrong with either.

Yeah Pete, the Hellbitch is really sweet.  It's got a lot of flatbow in her.  I had to get the Sheepeater first though because I've got nothing like her.  I'm selling some gear and may get the Hellbitch soon.  It's unique in it's own way too and has very nice qualities in a hunting bow. Gotta love that little grip too.

Hey guys, our buddy and fellow cheesehead Jerry Falk, Go Packers, just got his Sheepeater and submitted a nice product review. Check it out. He would be more than willing to answer any of your questions.

All I know is this----When I was at the Trad show in Boise I was shooting it(and every other bow there), and while I was shooting it everyone on the range was doing a lot of Ooooing and ahhhhhing at the bow. It is a real Killer----and light as a feather. I am saving for one right now.

I shot it in Montana Saturday and LOVED it...what a sweet little bow. Brent was a joy to BS with too... That bow should prove to be a BIG hit!

Good fortune was smiling on me last weekend at the Montana Bowhunters convention and I won a Sheepeater Recurve in a raffle. I need to figure out how I want it made and get it ordered before they get too busy. I plan to put some critters on the ground and meat in the freezer with it.

Unique and cool little bows from a couple of great guys.
