Title: Finally....My first Shrew! (Pictures included!)
Post by: Longbow917 on July 08, 2012, 10:08:00 PM
Well, it finally arrived, the day I left for July 04th Vacation.  I got a chance to finally shoot tonight when we got back and at 44# @ 27", it can sure move a heavy arrow.  Still working out the quiet factor and getting used to the grip, but it is one of the best lookin' bows I have owned!  Gregg did an awesome job.  All Bocote, marblewood accents, buff riser overlays and tips, carbon and mystery core!!

Very good looking bow, enjoy! I have a couple other very nice bows, but the Shrew is the one that I have the most fun shooting.  The others I get out periodically and fling some arrows, but very quickly I am like "okay I'm ready to go back to the Shrew".
