WOW! Your "go to bow" is now my "dream" bow. I can only imagine how smooth and fast it must be with those foam cores. How long have you owned it?
I just had to smile when I saw the riser is even on the proper side. If you ever decide to upgrade, let me know...of course, I don't know a bow that I would consider an upgrade.
Thanks for the pics Lyle

I got it last year, Ron can hook you right up. It's pretty quick with around 9 gpp but it really shines with 10.9 gpp and a big Simmons Tree Shark up front.

Congrats Lyle !!! I'm also a huge fan of Shrew bows. My 56" Classic Hunter is the only bow under 60" that I can shoot with any accuracy. It is also really smooth out to my 29" draw length.

Amazing how a turkey can stop an arrow that will zip thru a moose!
I do not own a Shrew, but I remember the first time I picked one up...I also remember how much power that little bow stored. So many bows, so little time.
Congrats on the bow AND the bird!

Thanks guys...next week I'll be after bird #2. I knew busting a tom with trad equipment would be awesome. It is right up there with the thrill of elk hunting. You just get a little more meat with the elk.

CONGRATULATIONS!! That's awesome Lyle.. It looks like your older Shrew still has some Mojo left it it..
Our season here in Michigan opens Monday the 23rd. I've got a new turkey bow that's just itching to get out there. I've named the new 52" Classic "Tuck" because it's short length can be tucked in almost anywhere.

Congrats on the new bow and the turkey! I've never shot a Shrew but that is on my bucket list
