new to me supermag48!!!
« on: August 16, 2007, 05:00:00 PM »
I just traded my grizzly for a supermag48 from 2big, it is the shortest bow that I have ever shot, gonna take a while to get used to the grip, but I like it, this is one compact little recurve, perfect for rabbit hunting here in the thick brush, I am so glad I found this site, great people, great deals, and great stuff!

Congrats Ian. I have not shot anything under 54 inches. Sounds like you have yourself a good brush bow for sure.  :thumbsup:

I have shot many Super 48s. Most people do not like them, but for me, I shoot them as good as anything. Be sure to shoot a arrow of at least 10 grains per pound. Light arrows are hard on that short bow.

Glad you like it!   :D   I really enjoyed shooting it but I have a thing for those old Grizzlies.   ;)

I have shot a few short bows and I liked a few and disliked even more. I fijnd it hard to find a short bow that is not real critical of release. That said the two I have and will keep are my RER Arroyo 54"s and a Browning that is 54"s as well, they are both very quick and very forgiving. Shawn
