Finally got my used Shrew in the mail today. It's 55#@27" and a 54" recurve. Shoots good for me, too. Tell me what you think. Be honest, please. It's about 10 years old and looks pretty good for it's age, I think. The skins are a little faded.

Looks nice. Maybe red elm limbs with actionwood riser. I can't tell from the pics if the laminations are maple or bamboo.

Looks good to me, You might lace on a new grip and she would look awesome.  Skins are real nice.

What amazes me is how a Shrew, and other bows like them can be so light, and yet so powerful.

"Be honest"...

It`s beautiful!

Nice bow!  ;)  Can't wait to get my classic hunter from Ron!  :D

great looking bow, congratulations. I folded under pressure (from the little voices in my head!!) and will be ordering one as soon as Ron returns home from hunting.
Good luck with it.

Looks good.  Congrats on the new bow!!

All that matters is what you think and how it shoots for you. I like it myself though since you asked. lol
