Mike, it is a 58" 53#@28" Scout.  I ordered that bow last year and Gregg just got it done for me.    :thumbsup:

A 56" Classic Hunter? Not on the website! I just ordered a 54"er ... and now I have to ask Ron to change my order AGAIN! Well that's what you get Ron for making us wait so excruciatingly long! I am old and don't know if I can last it out ... dave2old

Dave,

The 56" Classic Hunter is a SWEEEEEEET bow.  Ron and Gregg decided to try something for us "long draw" folk and this one is as smooth as silk to 32+".  Mine is 59#@32", and will be quite the hammer in the woods this fall.

Thanks, Bob. I've already put in my order change to Ron, assuming Gregg hasn't already started the 54". Frankly I'd take just about any Shrew I could get my hands on to ease this itch. These days, a new bow is about all I get excited about, and as all here know, the long wait is a killer. Dave

Brian,

That's a light gray. It does have a look of green, but its really just thinned black stain on actionboo.

Here's a left hand Super Shrew Deluxe for you lefty's to try. It's a 60" 55#@ 28" Super Shrew Carbon. Bamboo core, carbon on the outside, with Bacote riser and overlays.

We'll also have a LH 54" Shrew Classic Hunter with Brown Curly Birch veneers, 51#@ 28"

Hey buddy, you said you were going to be working like a rented mule today to get everything packed for the shoot and here you are playing with new toys.   :rolleyes:  

I can see a lot of happy new Shrew owners by the end of the weekend.  :thumbsup:
