Ron & Gregg had to talk me into the two piece, sure glad they did. I like the added weight in my hand. Can't tell it is a two piece shooting it. It will fit great in my flyrod case playing outback in Colorado and some other wilderness adventures.

52# @ 29"....that will work out west ,up north, down south, in the east or any place else including your backyard! Unless you draw 22"   :saywhat:    :biglaugh:

Yep,nice bow!
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

I only draw 27", so only about 47# for me.  Still spits an arrow pretty good.  I have some heavy footed arrows I made from Great Basin shafts. Great combo. My last bull was taken from my #54 Schafer. Another great bow! I am a lucky guy.

That is a nice looking bow highcountry. I agree
with what you said about the bow bolt. Rock solid. I was very skeptical until I shot one.
Then I had to own it. Just picked this 56" 53@28 Classic Carbon/Foam Hunter at the K-zoo expo.
 
Make certain your exhausted when you reach them Pearly Gates.

Those are some really beautiful limbs, are those curley birch?  Gregg said he had about 19 Shrews to take to the K-Zoo show. Must of been a real sight to see them all. Gregg has really turned out to be a super bowyer, can't believe he does it part time. Must not sleep much, with work, kids and all.
