Title: Shrew's and draw length
Post by: toby on July 24, 2013, 07:33:00 AM
I draw about 29" and am interested in getting a shorter, 56" Shrew for blinds and tree stands. Is there noticeable finger pinch or stack with these at longer dl's?

56" Classic Hunter (vs. the 56" regular Super Shrew) is the way to go. I draw 29" and my 56" Classic Hunter Super Shrew works perfect for me.

Thanks Ray, I'm a little confused. Are you saying the Classic Hunter or the Super Shrew would be best?

The classic hunter is what you want. It's a shorter bow designed for longer draw lengths.

Sorry for the confusion-the Classic Hunter is what you want. Sometimes I see the old 56" Super Shrews come up for sale in the classified section here. They're very good bows, but not what you want for your longer draw-just wanted to make sure you knew that.

Classic Hunter all the way, 12" riser section.  Works great at 29, no stack.  Regretfully I'm about to let go of mine.  I've got Habu fever and with a 50# set of Habu limbs headed my way there's no reason to keep the Shrew around anymore.  Awesome little bow but I just shoot my 62" 'Bu better. (I should add bow is lefty and already spoken for)
