First Time To Shoot a SuperShrew

Yawl listen to Randy. He just doesn't want to see a man cry.

I have a 58" Super Shrew, 54# @ 28." Of seven bows, it is my best shooter, except for my BW recurve. Light, handy, built like a tank and probably my most forgiving bow. Sorry, I'll never part with it even though I am looking for a 60" takedown version. Good luck with your search. - John

Don,

They all shoot really well -- Super Shrew, Classic Hunter, Scout, Lil' Favorite, Shrew Lite. I want to try a Model-T too, but I am not in the market for the longer length when the shorter bows shoot so darn well!

The best bow quiver for a Shrew is an EFA with the Totem! Maybe you can find one of those too. :D

I know that feeling of love when you shoot the Super Shrews. Happened to me too a few yrs back.

Don't get me wrong, I really do like Don. Just not that much. I'll have her with me again tonight at the Tuesday night shoot.

Randy must be a cruel man. Instead of going out to the shop to shoot tonight, I might just stay in my room. Lol.

WRV · April 26, 2011, 12:02:00 PM

Come on out and play with the rest of the kids Don I'll even share my new "toy" again.

2fletch · April 26, 2011, 01:01:00 PM

Okay.

Love my super shrew, great shooter! Another bow in this style is the Fredrick longbow Yeoman, a smokin little bow

2fletch · April 26, 2011, 10:14:00 PM

I shot this bow again tonight. Only shot 4 arrows but it was one of the best groups that I shot all night. It just ain't right that I don't have one.

WRV · April 26, 2011, 10:56:00 PM

Yes he did shoot my Shrew very well.....again. Somebody PLEASE sell Don a Shrew or I'm going to have to be on his team all the time now! Ron, you reading this??? I will have to admit we kicked some butt this evening. Good shooting pardner.......Randy

I'm thinking theres a Shrew in my future!

QuoteRon, you reading this???

Don, I wish I could help you but..

Had to carry Randy part of the night. Then, at the tie breaker he finally came alive and pin wheeled the little 1" bullseye.

Ron, I'd never want to cut in line ahead of someone. Thought that if I made a little noise then either one of the guys who own two or three of them might make me an offer I couldn't refuse, or Randy would eventually feel guilty and give me his. It does seem like Shrew owners are a little possessive and defensive about keeping their bows. Lol.

Don, maybe Allan DeVore (amar911) will read this and take pity on you. :( I use to call Allan "Shrew Pig" because he had so many Shrews. Now because he has so many different models and has tested and compared them, he is more knowable than anyone about Shrew bows...so now he has been officially promoted to the status of "Shrew Consultant".....

....

:D

Only wanted the first part of the above quote. Don was looking a bit tired in his chair and I finished up the match so he wouldn't have to get up

2fletch · April 27, 2011, 10:32:00 PM

Well, I have had a couple of good offers, but the poundage wasn't right. Sure would like to find a good Shrew at 45-50# @ 28"...,preferably a SuperShrew in good, but used condition. Until then I guess that I can just keep on shooting Randy's bow.

WRV · April 28, 2011, 10:05:00 AM

You know where to find me amigo. Moving to Mebane tomorrow

Clay Hills Bill · April 28, 2011, 12:42:00 PM

I have two Super Shrews that are 56" and 43lb@25". These have been my favorites for the last several years. I still can't figure out how such a light, short, handy bow shoots in such a forgiving manner.
