A beauty for sure. Congrats!

Great looking bow Mark. I agree with the statements you and Ray made. Obviously, the reason the new bow shoots well with arrows that are stiff for your other Shrews is that it is giving more energy and speed. Congratulations.

Mark,

       Wow, Congradulations on another really nice Shrew. Nice choice on the woods.

       Hopefully I can see it in person in a few weeks.

Mark, If applied properly I've found that cat whiskers do the best job of quieting down the Shrews.

Cut a strip in half, lay both pieces on the string, wrap snugly with serving thread or dental floss. Then stretch out the rubber and trim near the ends with scissors until they look like the 2nd picture.
