Shrew bow pics? Quiver recommendations?
« on: June 26, 2021, 02:10:56 PM »
I'm thinking about dropping my draw weight down and am debating on new limbs for my Fox vs a Shrew bow.
I do like my quiver bow-mounted, so wanted to see what y'all have used in the past.

Thanks in advance y'all!

Great Northern makes a nice quiver that looks good on a Shrew

Also Selway makes a "Mini" quiver that holds 5 arrows. I got one put on my 52" Shrew Classic Heritage last weekend at Compton. Note the green hood matches the green glass on my Shrew

Now that whole set up is a good looking rig. I really like the arrow colors also.

That Selway is a pretty sweet looking quiver on Ron’s bow.  Here’s my Great Northern made for Shrew Bows quiver on my Shrew Classic Hunter II Autumn Gold model. 


Great Northern made this model as a setback to fit better on the compactness of the Shrew bows.

That Classic Hunter II is 54” and my arrows are 29” BOP. I didn’t put the broadhead arrow in all the way into the hood

Ron, are you showing your age? I can remember when you use to say that 2-3 arrows were all you should need. :clapper:

That's the problem when you're my age and you say stuff you can't remember what you said the next day.  :biglaugh:

But I don't doubt that I said that, I was probably talking about when I was a really good shot, now day's it might take more arrows to kill em. :goldtooth:

The 2-fletch quivers are a good choice on a Shrew bow also, I've used em and they work great.  :thumbsup:

Ron, i remember a morning hunt a few years ago with 3 arrows, and that was not enough. After sending 2 arrows at a fox hanging around my tree stand . I found myself later with 1 arrow remaining and a boss doe that i really wanted to take out.

I was on the ground, standing against the side of an old roadbed, and she was about 12 yards away, browsing with no concern. With the release of the arrow, she dropped and the arrow skimmed over her back and made a terrible fuss in the thick brush behind her. She looked intently in the direction where the arrow ended, but never looked toward  the source. After a couple of minutes she came straight down the road bed, passing within about 3 feet. After going about 20 yards past, she caught my scent and had a fit.

It was comical; and disappointing, having a deer within about 3 feet and no arrow. There were several lessons to learn here.

Don, it seems the older we get the more lessons we learn. The problem is as we get older our memory starts to fade and we learn those same lessons over again.  :biglaugh:

I tried three quivers on my 54" Shrew Classic Hunter ll; Great Northern, Selway slide-on and Eagles Flight 4 arrow mini max. All work fine, but I favor the Eagles Flight because of the minimal weight and size pairs nice with the feather weight Shrew. None are offset, but that works well sitting in a tree stand with the bow laying across knees and string high on thighs under coat pockets. Having the string parallel to the arrows works well resting my bow this way in cold wether, bare handed with hands in coat pockets and heated with hand warmers. I may still try the offset quiver too for the arrow clearance.
