Title: Shrew Lovers! Come Drool!
Post by: PastorSteveHill on December 30, 2010, 07:58:00 PM
I am very excited to have gotton this Super Shrew Gold!  The grip is the best I've ever had on a longbow.  I am also suprised at how quick it is for a 50 lbs. bow!!!

I got it a few days ago and have been out of town, and got home today and got it dialed in! Man I am so excited about it!!!

Couple questions:

1. I've got a Kanati (anawakee archery) quiver on it.  The instruction sheet says somethign about not having a quiver around the limb base that consticts it, as it might cause damage to the bow?  I will re read it, but is this quiver ok to use with the bow or should I go with a different style?  

2. I've found the brace height that it likes is about 7 3/4...  Is that uncommon with shrews? I draw about 29.5 inches and this is a 60 inch bow...

Steve you are fine with the quiver and the brace height for starters. Play around with it from 7 3/8 to where you are right now for comparison purposes. Real nice point and shoot qualities in the shrew. Enjoy.tm

Sure thing Ed!  They don't get any better than this, but I do get board real easy...

I think this would be the perfect bow if it were made in 64' long...

Ed, I can't believe "Builder" sold it back to you!  Good for you!

These shrews are sure nice!  They feel like a match stick after shooting a widow recurve, but it is so nice!!!

Great looking bow Steve. I had a 50# Super Samaurai I got from Ralph in Georgia. I had a weak moment one day and sold it back to him. Still sick over that one. Hang on to this one.

Steve, getting ready to pack it up and send it off to Jim for a little stippeling. Nice looking Shrew you have there.

Thnx...  I love the centaur longbows, always have, but the grip on the shrew is a whole different sweetheart.  I do wish it were a little longer. It doesn't stack or anything, I'm just use to a little bit longer, longbow.. I'm sure I'll get use to it... In any case it sure shoots nice... I am still in a cast with my injury, but I've been shooting a little and seem to really have taken to it...
