Shrew ?
« on: July 07, 2008, 06:50:00 PM »
What do you guys think about the shrew lil favorite?  How long is the wait time for one, and how do they shoot considering their length.

That's what I'm currently shooting and all I can say is WOW. I have a couple Shrew longbows built by John Mccallough and they are as good as anything I've ever seen or shot but this Lil Favorite is something else. I'm going to order a Shrew Classic Hunter and another Lil Favorite just because the Lil Favotite shoots so good. The Lil Favorite is smooth as silk, hits with pure power and has no finger pinch what more can I say. I forgot to mention it's one of those bows you can hand to anyone and they just seem to shoot it well.

I have a 54in Classic and its a great shooter. Any Shrew is a great bow. Especially the Lil Favorites and the Classic longbows. Give Ron a call and he will fill you in on all the details.

Wait time? I've been waiting 354 years for my Classic Hunter ... which was supposed to be shipped a week ago and I'm biting my wife's fingernails as it ain't not here yet. Plan ahead!

Ah yes, thank you Ron! And with my luck the postal plane will crash, then when they dig the bow from the burnt rubble the truck will have 7 flat tires, etc. I have lived a very content life with very little money because I am blessed in not "wanting things" and found a wife (even more rare!) who shares that value. I seem to be making up for it now!   :banghead:  Dave

The Lil Favorite is the perfect hunting tool, in my opinion.short, light, quick, dead on accurate. My FAVORITE of the the Shrew line, as well as all bows.

I have 2 Lil' Favorites and they are great bows.  One of my favorite from a great line of bows.  My Lil' Favorite is the bow when I just cant seem to shoot well I know I can pick that bow up and almost always do well with it.  Although that could be because of all the MOJO that bow has from its trips to Shrewhaven with all the guys!!   :thumbsup:

IMO, Shrew bows are up there at the top! They're awesome little bows and perform just as well as, if not better than, any other bow on the market. I'd highly recommend them! Ron is a top class bloke that is a pleasure to deal with!  ;)   :D

I just spoke with Ron, and placed my order for a LiL  Favorite with curly burch veneers. I am already anticipating receiving it, it is a beautiful bow and based on all the responses must shoot quite well also.
