New Burly Shrew
« on: January 07, 2012, 02:31:00 PM »
It has been a long week, I got this Shrew on Tuesday and didn't get to shoot it until today.  It shoots like all my other past and present Shrews, deadly quiet.  It is a 54" Classic Hunter, 54# @ 28", walnut dymondwood riser with myrtle burl limb vaneers.  I like it!

Gregg has created another beautiful bow that undoubtedly shoots as good as it looks! Congratulations, Mark. I know you are going to enjoy the bow and hopefully take a lot of game with it.

One of my dream bows. How you reckon she draws @ 29". That 4 day wait to shoot it probably ranks right there with waiting for the electric chair and I'm sorry you had to go through it! A real looker.

Possum Head,

A 54" Classic Hunter will draw very well at 29" (and beyond), but I think you would probably prefer a 56" CH with your draw length, given a choice and if you didn't need the absolute shortest bow possible.

Pretty!  Those limbs look real nice.

Very nice!
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
