That looks nice.  I have that system on one of my bows and it has been flawless since purchased new several years ago.

Ron,
Will they be able to build enough so you will be able to have a small inventory of general poundage stock bows?

I've been enjoying the pictures you've been sending me.  Can't wait to see it in person.  I like the name, seeing as how your nickname is Lobo and you've got a strong paw!

I had my hands on the Lobos Paw prototype. Ron is a very critical bow-man....to my eye it was perfect, Ron wanted it to be tweaked a bit. I think this next generation of Shrew bows will be the benchmark of quality and design, literally a lifetime achievement for my good friend. Think that through....Ron is 80 years old and still striving to make his products better. I admire that a great deal.    :notworthy:

Also, are the older Super Shrew designs still available?  (If it ain't broke don't fix it).

How long was that bow Terry?  I've always wanted to try a Shrew.  Shot a McCullough a big, but it was too light poundage for me and a little short I think.

I'm guessing that's a McCullough built Shrew that Terry has(d). Looks like his work. John McCullough built 58" and 60" Super Shrew Samurai's for Ron at that time. Mine is a 58" 55#@27 that John Built in 1999. Of course, I've still got my senses....and that bow.    :p
