which shrew to order?

[captaincaveman]

I draw 29.5 and like 85#ish +/-.  So would a CH be to short?  Should I go Super Shrew? I've heard even the short ones Don't stack.  What say yall?

thanks

No stack for you on the CH and I don't think any on the SS in the longer versions.  Find them and try them if you can so you can see what you like and how the two bows feel on your fingers. I like a 60" SS more than the CH at 56" even though with the shorter riser on the CH the limb length is not all that different.

thanks xtrema....wish I knew somebody close that had one....that would make things a lot easier

Mine is a SS Samurai.  At 60" I get no stack at all and I draw to 30".

[captaincaveman]

yeah the samurai looks pretty sweet...thinking hard about that one

I am near Indianapolis, if you are in the area, you are welcome to shoot mine!  Just let me know.

I'm shooting a ch that's 54" and I'm drawing an honest 30" with no stack what so ever

[Jack Rehacek]

I didn't know they were being made again.?

I have 56" CH & 60" SS and a 29.5" draw.

Both will draw smoothly past 30"

Both are great bows but I like the SS better, a little more stable, feels like a much longer bow.

I have a 58" Super Shrew Delux that draws smoothly back as far as I can pull it (29+"). This is my go to bow. Excellent quality, and I can hit what I want no matter how long it's been since I last shot it.  You can't go wrong with a shrew!

Dang!! that has got to be a thing to see. I would think that your almost pulling the string off the limb tips at that point. That bow has got to be in a hell of an arch. Just sounds scary.  rat'

Speculation can sometimes lead you to the wrong conclusion...    What is the results for one bow may not be the same for another..

Not trying to slam the Shrews you have built for you Ron,just saying it has got to LOOK spooky when the bow is drawn that far. Has to. I've owned a few Shrews myself,and if you were making a 62" 2-piece right now,I'd be signing up. So,please don't take offense. Not meant that way. rat'

The big Dude from NY, Bob W, has a 56" CH that he draws 32"+. I saw a pic of that at full draw WOW!!

well since "the man" himself has shown up....what would you recommend Ron...85#ish @29.5? samurai is looking good....could I go shorter with boo limbs? or is it not recommended?

[captaincaveman]

well that quote looks rather altered lol
