Title: Well, I have my back-up bow now...
Post by: MnFn on April 12, 2009, 12:08:00 AM
I'm just not sure which one it is. I recently had a chance to buy a new Shrew Classic Hunter 51@28/56" and didn't have to wait a year so I jumped on it.

And, it is as good as everyone says.
But, I took out my Kota Prairie Swift 55@28" and shot it along side the Shrew. It is no slouch either! It was remarkably easy to switch between the two. Yes, this is the bow I had for sale. Boy, am I glad I did not get any takers. She is off the market. (http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd43/MnFn/apair137.jpg)
However I promised my wife I would sell a bow or two when I bought the Shrew, so something will have to go..but it won't be either of these.

I love my Prairie Swift. Very easy to shoot. I wouldn't get rid of it either. Nice new one by the way.

Davey Crockett, I like the way you think: A backup-backup! That could be endless, and rightly so!

Since your two main go to bows are both one piece I sure think it would be completely reasonable to now need take down versions of each in case you ever need to fly somewhere with them.

From there we move on to lighter weight versions for form practice and cold weather hunts.  Then heavier wieght versions for bigger game just in case an opportunity to hunt moose or cape buffalo presents itself.

The opportunities are endless!  :bigsmyl:    :bigsmyl:
