New (to me) Shrew w/pics
« on: December 20, 2008, 07:07:00 PM »
You gotta love new bows.  Just took this new to me Shrew to the range to start tuning it in.  This bow is a 58" Super Shrew Deluxe, 54# @ 28", bacote riser and curly birch limbs.  I set it up similar to my other 58" Shrew as a starting point.  A few minor adjustments to nock height and brace height and the bow was shooting quiet and the arrows flying good.  I had to get it shooting so I can show it off at our regular Sunday trad shoot tomorrow.  I bought and shot my first Shrew last summer and they are now my favorites.   :bigsmyl:

You are goingto love that bow.  The pic to the right is an elk Igot with my shrew.  Had the bow only three weeks at the time. Fast and quiet.

Thanks guys.  I think this one is a keeper.  Jake, you did get me started on the Shrew kick.  Dave 2 Old, thanks for getting your books to me so quick.
