I got my new Super Shrew a few weeks ago and just thought I'd share my new shooter. I hope that the pics aren't to big.
Her stats are: 56" 49#@26"
Black phenolic riser with bloodwood accents. Black/grey curly birch veneers and bamboo cores.
Strung profile.

I fixed your pics for you. You can't leave a space between the end and the IMG box. VM13
Donavan thats a sharp looking bow. Love those veneers. Just ordered mine 8/1. Now the wait. Good luck this season. Enjoy your Shrew.
Lets try again.

Hey Brad, can you see the pics? I can't on my end.
The second one I tryed I can see, but not the 1st post.
Donavan
The back of the riser.

Ready for hunting.

One more for Mr. LaClair to see the limb tip.

When "Pearl" got here, her limb tip was sticking throught the box. It must have been a very rough ride getting into Canada.
Cheers,
Donavan
PS: The marks that are there don't photograph very well. They are just cosmetic anyway.
Beautiful bow Donavan, I know you will truly enjoy your Shrew. I know after owning my Shrew Classic Hunter I am spoiled for anything less. It is THE best bow I have ever owned!
nice! and the shelf is on the correct side even. ;)
only thing that would make it nicer is if it were a take down, and MINE. :)
Thanks guys. I really love those Super Shrews.
This is the 3rd one that I've gotten. My first one, I gave to my bro for his B-day. It was a used right hander that I tryed.
The next one just might have to be a take-down.
Can you guys see the pics in the first post?
WOW!!! I have been fortunate enough to see a whole bunch of Shrew's...but that one stands out! BEAUTIFUL!
Man I love Shrews too!!!!!!! Love the curvy lines!!!!! and them limb vaneers are down right purty!
Congrats!!
Mr. Norris, having you say that this bow stands out is fantastic! I know that you have had the chance to see many of these Super Shrews.
Over&Under, I really love the curly birch veneers. If you hunt from tent blinds and don't care for plain old black glass, the black/grey venners should work just as good. And have more figure
:thumbsup:
Donavan
one day i will have one of those man they are real nice. oh by the way did i say it is my birthday on the 9th this month. hint hint :goldtooth: :biglaugh:
Donavan, I had to copy and paste the addy to see pics. I can see the one you tried next.
Thanks for fixing the pics Vermonster.
Jeff, I keep trying to tell everyone I know that to LOL! I guess they got suspicious when I started have B-days every month :readit: .
Thanks Brad. What did you order?
Cheers,
Donavan
Very nice looking bow. Congrats I am sure she will treat you well.
Grats on the new Bow. Looks very nice.
Rich K
Yeah boy!.....now that's fancy right there!
CONGRATS she's a looker :thumbsup:
Pretty Sharp Donavan!
Hey Bro when did you turn Lefty?<><
Awesome! I have a little favorite in the same finish ordered! Oh the wait is killing me. I'll forget about it until someone post pics of thier shrew on here.
Thanks for the kind words fellas, really appreciate it!
Hey there Frank! I've always been a lefty. I'm just lucky enough to be able to shoot right handed also. I've been thinking about getting a pair of bows (one right, one left), and calling them "Mirror Image" LOL!
The Shrew that you had for a while, I got to just try out the Super Shrews. I didn't have it for a week and I ordered my SS Gold.
That right hander gets some real good use by my bro. He didn't get a chance to bowhunt last year, but got real close to a moose the year before with it.
Again, thanks all,
Donavan
WOW, She sure is purty. I have never shot a shrew but hopefully will soon. LOL Congrats
Maconducks, I know about the wait LOL! I was like that waiting on my first one.
Having my SS Gold sure made the wait easier this time!
You'll love the curly birch veneers. I've never really been a fan of black bows until I saw these veneers on Mr. LaClairs sight. The beauty is there, you just have to get closer to see it or the bow just looks black from a distance.
Cheers,
Donavan
Danovan didn't know (or forgot )you shoot Left and right handed. Ya the best of both worlds. BTW shoot me your address again in a email or pm. Great bow my Friend.<><
Great looking bow. I want another one now. A 54in classic.
Oddan, just order one. Then let me know how it shoots :D !
Frank, PM sent.
Cheers,
Donavan
That is a Super nice Super Shrew! You got my wheels spinning for my next bow with those veneers... and my new baby's only been here a week.
I should really give a big Thank You to both Mr. LaClair and Gregg Coffey.
So Thank You to both of you gentlemen! This is just an awsome bow.
Jedimaster, it doesn't take much to start thinking about a new bow does it :) .
Cheers,
Donavan
Donavan thanks I got it. Danny slow down ya just got a new bow LOL.<><
I like that so much I could think about trading my Taylor guitar for it. LOL
I got this in the mail today. When my hand heals and I can shoot it, I'll post more. ;)

Nice Bow, Nice arrows and a nice quiver!!!

Godfather did I tell YA how much I like ya ! :bigsmyl: :rolleyes: ;) <><

Louutah....heres a SS Gold to hold you over..

Vermonster, come on man, we need more pics then that LOL! What are those veneers?
Roger, I know that you have more then just that one to show us.
My SS Gold is a nice contrast to this one.
Thanks again for the nice words!
Donavan
I will Donovan. But this is your thread and I will do one when I can shoot my new toy. ;)
I'll be watching carfully for that thread Vermonster. I'm real curious to find out the specs on that beaut!
Cheers,
Donavan
Heres all of them!!
(http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n180/RogerNorris/jackdannyroger006.jpg)
Now that is what I'm talking about! Mr. Norris, you have some real beauties there!
Thanks for showing them.
I'll try to get some pics of my SS Gold on here tomorrow.
Cheers,
Donavan
I like that bow a lot would be good from a Double bull...blend right it with the black on the inside.
Best things is it's from Michigan...
Josh
Very very nice one there Donavan, congratulations.
Roger, thats one cool collection.
Mine are nice, but I think Donavan wins the beauty contest. That curly birch is awesome.
Thanks guys!
Roger, what are the risers on your two Golds?
Donavan
Bloodwood
Man you guys are going to make me have to break down and order another one just so I can join in the beauty pagent.
Nice looking bows there fellas!!
Donavan,
I have 2 on order for Jan 08. One for me and one for the misses. I'm thinkin black phenolic with osage with the blackcurly birch veneers on one and black phenolic and zebrawood veneers on the other. I really like how yours turned out.
Here are a couple more pics.
One of my better groups.

My Gold and "Black Gold" ;)

Heydeerman, those sound like real beauties. Osage accents will be real sharp. I know that the SS's with the zebra wood that I have seen, have been great looking bows. When you get them, I'd love to see some pics.
Roger, that bloodwood sure looks good with osage.
Tim, I've seen a couple of your bows, and they are awsome looking bows also!
Cheers,
Donavan
Very nice DD!!
Thanks Curt. How are those Kwyk-styks treating you? That new black one you have looks like an awsome blind bow.
Cheers,
Donavan
Love those veneers!!! That is a great looking bow!
Mr. Norris....thanks for the shot of your SS Gold, I can't wait.
Donavan...are those arrows the new ones offered by Ron on his website? if so, how about a few words on them, I have been looking at the grey/burgandy colored set and was wondering about performance,quality etc. Thanks
The arrows Ron offers are top of the line. They are built by Paul Jalon of Elite Arrows. I have yet to find a better built arrow for the price. Give Ron a call and he will set you up. I have a set of the Autumn Legends and a set of the Shadow Wings. Best wood arrows I have ever shot.
Louutah, exactly what Tim said. I have the Autumn Legends (I guess the pics give that away :rolleyes: ). I've bought arrows from others that were as beautiful as these, but the quality of Mr. Jalon's arrows is unbelievable.
I've never seen wood arrows spin so true! If one of my Legends don't hit the mark, I know full well that it was me LOL!
I'm going to get a set of either Shadow Wings or a set of laminated birch from Mr. Jalon. These arrows are absolutly fantastic.
Thanks Two Arrows.
Cheers,
Donavan
