Gorgeous. That bow is a thing of beauty. Some day I hope to find a 45# version of that under my Christmas tree.

Ron,I enjoyed our visit this afternoon.I went to your website   www.schrewbows.com   to see the picture of the monster water buffalo  shot by Allan DeVore.  A  big congratulations to Allan!
The buffalo horn overlays on the riser of the” Shrew Safari” are a real nice touch. It is a real impressive bow.

Ron,

Great ideas on all the Shrew Safari accessories. I think a 5 arrow Shrew/EFA quiver with the Totem is the ideal setup for the bow. I know I was running out of arrows with the boar I shot. Three is not enough -- at least for me. That broadhead looks like a good one for heavy game.

I do wish the bow could get to Colorado via Oklahoma, but it might cost me a friendship. Doug REALLY wants that bow in his hands. He calls me every day about it. Ray got it right when he said: "Doug's probably thinking "quit taking pictures and send me my bow"    :biglaugh:   "

Well I know why it is not a lefty because if it had been it would never leave home.  Nice looking bow for sure and although I do not own one(yet) I have shot my share and imagine it shoots as good, or better, than it looks.

Great looking bow, Greg did an awesome job on her. Doug is a very lucky man.

I called Doug this morning to tell him that his bow was on it's way, he's pretty excited. He hasn't been able to see all the post here and maybe it's just as well or he'd REALLY be excited.    :readit:

Ron, I read hurriedly through the first time and didn't read everthing. When you are ready for a Safari quiver let me know what you are thinking. We are happy to work with you. Dang, that is a nice bow.     :archer2:

Traditional bow shooters are so very lucky to have the great bowers and designers at this time of the great comeback of traditional archery. Safari is a beauitiful name for this bow! Makes me want to sell all my longbows and have only one! Ken Denton

Terry, the old Shrew Samurai is a great bow. John McCullough was making them in 2002. The Bow Forms that Gregg is currently using is a little different than Johns forms in that they have more reflex in the limb. The added reflex may only make a slight difference but I think the materials that we're using today, carbon,foam,mystery core,.. all contribute to a bow with better performance than the bows we were making 8 to 10 years ago.

I couldn't give you a number in FPS without doing some testing but from my own experience and from customer feedback I can say that the Shrew bows of today are the best we have made to date.
