Nice looking stick, Chuck and Ron!   :thumbsup:  

Any chance down the road for a reverse handle version?

I know it's blasphemous but this bow loves 15-35 carbons. Four shot group from 15yd's.

Ron, wash your fingers (not mouth since you typed it) off with soap and call Paul Jalon and get some proper arrows.  Hey, come to think of it those Forgewoods I gave you are pretty light spined, did you try those?

By golly Ray, you're right I'll try em.     :archer2:

Hermon, it's pretty light weight, 36#@ 28" but surprisingly it really zings those light arrows. Maybe it's Hill's "secret" formula    :dunno:  

   :D

[email protected]" will kill an Iowa whitetail with skinny forgewoods and a 140 Hill, 36@28" with forgewoods should be okay for a Michigan whitetail as well.

Dan, the arrows were made for me by Paul Jalon of Elite Arrows. It's a modified shield cut that he burned. 4.5" high back that stabilize a broadhead really well.

My grandson came to visit this weekend. He wanted to shoot some arrows so he shot the Shrewhill. He's a lefty like me and so is my son, his dad.

Ron,

Glad you posted this thread over here as well,so we can enjoy it.
Target archery is seeing how far away you can get and still hit the bull's eye. Bowhunting is seeing how close you can get and never miss your mark.

He told me yesterday that he wants to come to Shrewhaven this fall. He's a personal injury Attorney in Illinois but he said he's also licensed to practice in Michigan. It would be good to have a lawyer in the group in case we ever needed one don't you think?

Ron, no lawyering needed in the UP.  That's what guns are for. Roger is getting a little long in the tooth for all but the wood stove.tending so it might be nice to have a younger whippersnapper around.

He's not a whippersnapper, he's 30 years old but I'm sure he can fetch and tote better than the old coons in camp.
