The Shrew was introduced in 1994, 25 years ago. It was described as a "bold innovation". There had been short recurves available for a long time but no one was making a short longbow back then. It took awhile for people to realize with the right design (forward handle) a short longbow would disprove the idea that short bows stacked and were unstable. It wasn't long before other bow makers were making short bows also.
