Im finally gonna do it!

[pauljr]

I have been wanting a shrew for along time, well I just filled out the order form and wrote a check for a deposit. Im ordering a 60" chamelion(sp) in brown camo. Now the waiting begins. I cant wait! I figure the 60" bow would be best for my long draw. 31" with a recurve, probly 30 with a long bow.

Good for you,well over due.

[snakebit40]

Congrats!

Ah the wait....now to drive yourself crazy with the woods, size, weight, etc!  Or do you have something in mind already Paul.  I thought I did and have changed my mind a few times:)

[pauljr]

Don Im pretty sure im going with the brown chamelion(sp)super shrew 60" 55lb @30". 'Im a liitle scared to go shorter than 60".

[Steve O]

Paul, you are getting the right length IMO.  Ron and Gregg will not let you order the wrong length.

I like the brown Camo.  Mine is only 58" but it works OK.

Congrats!  Believe me, the wait will drive you crazy...  

[GRINCH]

Just keep saying it's worth the wait.

[rick7]

you wont be sorry  excellent bows

[Kyle Lancaster]

Maybe the best pure hunting bow that I've owned. The grip is outstanding. The length is very "woods friendly".

[Raging Water]

Yep, let me say it correctly, "THE WAIT".

[Guru]

RW,  With all due respect...I have no idea if you're kidding or not. Given some of your past history with posts and threads...I really honestly don't know?

But will you please show some respect for us parents that are trying to raise our kids right and would never say anything like that to them even when kidding around.

Let's not forget...a lot of us have young, up and coming, impressionable bowhunters that like to surf around Trad Gang to learn not only how to be a better woodsman, hunters, and archers...but also how to become fine, young repectful citizens.

I'm leaving your post above this one unedited for now, in hopes that you will edit it yourself after you see things from my/our perspective....

just curious, what is the wait time on custom bows these days?

[pauljr]

Tom, Ron told me this morning about 9 months.

[BOHO]

heck thats not bad at all. I was thinking prolly 1-2 years. it will be here before you know it. Ive never owned or shot a Shrew but heard great things about them. Im sure you'll love it. congrats

[Wiley Coyote]

You won't regret getting a Shrew. I have had mine since '02 and it is still my favourite bow!!
 

[falconview]

Don't be afraid of going short on these bows
They shoot great short under 60"

[Ray Lyon]

I draw 29" and I love my 60" Super Shrew.  The 56" Classic Hunter has been very successful with long draw folks too. It has a shorter riser than the regular Super Shrew.  For me it's one or the other.

[pauljr]

Now I dont know what I want lol. Thanks alot guys! I asked Ron this morning if he could do curly maple and he said yes so its gonna be stained curly maple! I love curly maple!

[Ray Lyon]

Paul,

The stained curly maple and birch make beautiful bows. Order another one 4-5 months in and then you'll have a shorter wait after the first one arrives.  They're kind of like Lays potato chips.
