Title: I have been tempted yet again
Post by: Danny Rowan on April 27, 2015, 01:45:00 PM
I have truly resisted a bunch on buying bows. Yeah, got 4 Schafer Silvertips on the rack and one on order, but have been resisting the classifieds. Until today when a sweet looking vixen caught my eye and heart on another site and I could not resist. So a 2011 Gregg Coffey Super Shrew is on the way to me, 60", 59#@28" bow bolt takedown, macassar ebony limbs.

Congrats Danny,that's a pretty bow and a great shooter. I love Macassar and those little longbow are a joy to shoot and very easy to carry. I have a Gregg's Elkheart on arrive for next week.

Danny,
Same thing happened to me last year.  I bought a 58" 58#. Super Shrew Samurai from  Chromebuck.  When I got it I tried shooting it and it was everything CB said it was, very smooth shooting.

It then sat on the shelf while I played around with my other bows.  I did occaisionally wonder why I bought it.  Then this spring after struggling shooting the other bows, I put them down and pulled out the Shrew.

It shot so nice I took it to a Archery shop and put it on a scale.  It came out a hair over 55, which made sense.  But the difference in weight is not the main reason it shoots so well for me.  Something about the ease of draw until I hit my anchor is unique on this bow. Don't know what it is, but I can shoot it comfortably alot longer than most of my other bows, and this is the heaviest bow I currently own.
Once in awhile an impulse buy is a good thing!

Temptation is good. I have said that before. Now you have shown this good looking bow, so A HHA Redman is looking better and better to me. Temptation is so strong, and I am so weak...

I can see how that one would suck you in. Beautiful Bow!    :thumbsup:

Danny, you should be ashamed of yourself for giving in so easily. You could have held out a few more hours! Heck, even a spineless wimp like me could have resisted that gorgeous Siren for 10-15 minutes.

Enjoy!!!
