Just got in a little bit ago and had a package waiting on me..... the Shrew Autumn Gold Classic Hunter II. What a purty bow!!!! I've wanted a Shrew for years but the wait and uncertainty of some of the bowyers kept me from ordering one. I knew once I heard Mr Bodnik was building them I'd have to have one and the first pics of these Osage bows made that a "here take my money" :)) My thanks to Mr LaClair for the genuis and insight to designing such a wonderful bow....... great figure in the Osage!!! Mr Cosgrove and Mr Bodnik for getting me the exact bow I want. I'm a picky person when it comes to what I hunt with and I am totally enamored with my Shrew..... Before the rest.... Still the best!!!!
Congrats! I have to admit I've been looking at those a lot.
A few pics.....
Thank you :goldtooth:
That is excellent. What a nice looking bow.
Nice bow! Like those Brownings also :thumbsup:
Thank you..... yeah they are good shotguns.... the 10g is a BLAST :bigsmyl:
Great looking bow! What the specs on your bow and what arrows are planning to shoot?
It's a 52" bow @ 45lbs..... I have some Easton aluminums for now but I'm undecided on arrows..... it's a harder decision for me so many variables.
Thanks for the reply. Sent you a private message.
The Little Shrew I had really liked wood arrows. Or maybe that was just me.
Thanks fellas :thumbsup:
Wow!!
X2 on the shrew and the Brownings!
Pretty bow Craig and it should get even more so as it darkens.
Thank you gentlemen I appreciate the compliments :) Trying to figure out what direction I want to go for arrows...... I'm tired of throwing aluminum arrows.
In wood, Douglas Fir from Surewood Shafts is hard to beat and Mike Harbison (Bayou Traditional Archery) has made some beautiful arrows for me with it.
Nice looking bow. I'm on the list for a CH can't wait to get it! I'm going back to aluminum's because I had two carbons explode on me this year
Fitter, if you are thinking about woodies check with Snag here. I got a dozen from him before, and will be talking to him about another dozen for the bow I ordered today.
