Title: New Shrew Classic Hunter
Post by: David McLendon on June 04, 2011, 01:15:00 PM
I have had this bow for a few days now and had to wait until the weekend to have time to do the photo resizing for this site.
Anyway Greg and Ron have done a great job of creating just what I had in mind.
It is a Shrew Classic Hunter 54"AMO, 53#@28", Bow-Bolt takedown, phenolic riser with a nice piece of zircote on the belly side and carbon overlay on the nose of the grip, carbon/foam limbs with gray stained curly maple veneers which have some really cool figure running lengthwise as well capped off with black gemsbok horn tips.

Here's it's twin brother. When Gregg was building this one for David, he forgot to put in the Carbon/foam limb core,.. it has a bamboo core.

Digging around today I found me a full length CE Heritage 250 shaft. It's time to get down to some bareshafting for a serious killing arrow now.
