My new Great Northern Lil' Creep. Yeah! Now more pics.
« on: October 22, 2011, 06:52:00 PM »
I am a big fan of Jerry Brumm's Great Northern bows. I have four examples of his bows already, and when I heard of his new bow I could not resist.

The Lil' Creep is somewhat reminiscent of the Bushbow, but is fixed at a 58" length. It has a bamboo core standard, and can be ordered in black, brown or green glass. I ordered brown. 57#@28".

The first thing I thought of as I took it out of the box was that if Dean Torges made a glass bow, he might have made this one, as it has many of the characteristics of his Ambush Bow guidelines.It has an understated elegance and a down to business personality while being highly refined. It is light to carry and quick to point,but still maintains the stability of the Bushbow. Very smooth drawing, really quiet and quick.

Looks like a nice one.....Great Northern is good stuff!

I like the looks of her. Your description is spot on. "Understated Elegance", I like that.    :thumbsup:

I saw one of those at the GLLI in August. The one Jerry had was decked out with Snakeskins very cool!  Congrats on your bow.

They're great bows.  I love my "Green Meanie".  The brown looks good too!!

Oh man I love it!!!  Is that the Shedua riser? Also what is the limb width on the LiL' creep?

I'm a new fan of Jerry's now that I bought a bushbow for myself and one for my son this past spring.

That is the new shedua Dymondwood riser. It is very good looking with the bamboo core.

I'm also struck by its understated elegance. Congratulations to this beautiful little bow, Bob!
