        Alex-
        If you decide to get one for your Shrew – I would suggest calling the folks at eagle flight and ordering the brace they have for those bows and/or measuring the distance between [ straps] where you want to place them on the Bow.
        You get the best fit that way, especially on the short riser of the Shrew [ worked for me anyhow, it is what i did for mine ]

            Alex-
            I have them on Shrews and Centaurs [ r/d LB ]leave them on the bows and shoot everyday. I had one loosen slightly, but I tightened it back up and has held since. I put em on real tight!. Maybe as Smithhammer said they have revamped them.
            They are working for me. As long as they did not loosen over a month or so Hunting / shooting I would still be happy as they are easy to retighten. I also put the straps close together completely off the working limbs [really on the riser just above the fadeout]. you need to get the shortest brace [ they will make what ever length you need. I find the model that comes without the bar/brace to work fine and it fits anybow — no matter how short. my one critique- I would prefer the rubber clamp part to be slightly longer and reach the opposite side of the bow,probably make it even more secure.

              wow ————-
              I am not sure what to say!?
              It is starting to become silly, average people will vote against hunting if technology becomes paramount.

                  The subject matter does not lend itself to brevity.

                    I hope it makes it to the Mag — I for one always enjoy Troy’s tuning posts. I am sure a complete article would be very Educational — at least for me.

                      Troy –
                      Got it — in the past I have tried to get my arrows too close to 28 [ I draw 27] when in reality it doesn’t matter as you say, if a bit long. Usually end up that way anyhow–after tuning.
                      Thanks

                        Not familiar with this product personally. Imagine they would work, especially on recurves. I have built /placed cushion/ pads on my recurves where the string slaps the limb and it made a significant difference in noise level.

                          I have always been a bowquiver individual for the reasons you mentioned in your post. I stumbled on the Eagles flight quiver a year ago and now own 3. obviously I really like em. They are holding up great and easy to get parts for [foam]-as per your remarks.

                            What is your draw ? and does it matter to you, how long the arrow ends up past it [ other than usual 1″ or so for clearence?

                              in reply to: Barta on techno-BS #41624

                              Tred Barta — Fred Eichler are the 2 best known imho ” “outhouse channel” Trad bow Personalities. I personally do not care for the Dramatized Histrionics/emotional displays !?! portrayed on their programs* [ and ethereal ethics displayed by Barta]. Maybe we should challenge them to “Walk the Talk” come into our ” House”: not in a true challenge — but in a teaching-“Way”. WE; Show them how it is done. Put our “Money”[ honor/integrity ] where our mouth is ? If we trully want to Change attitudes of the undecided – we need to show them who we really are. Videography is the Future – yea I know [ Iam an old geezer also]– but here we are “preaching to the Choir”**—
                              How do we get to the avg person to realize we are trully the protectors of what is left?

                              *yea – I got it, it is about money — I have actually had a couple of these shows on property I was involved with. Although I have to admit – their Cinematography is Beautiful

                              ** and Dave P has always ” Gone in amongst them” a difficult task usually shyed away from by most–always difficult for me – but I do it in other fields–

                              Maybe — Tradbow ? could launch a program that
                              would deal with all these issues? or invite these 2 TV programs to be involved with our members – hunting / under our protocols ?!? — you never know unless you ask — [ Of course you need to make sure you control your portion of the final program ] — they are famous for editing —

                              What do you all think?!
                              PS – Iam Crippled also [ not as bad as Barta – but he has a tv show to help — I respect his tenacity – as I do all folks whose road is harder than ours — ” There, but for the grace of God, go I”

                                It sounds like you are ” In Like Flynn ” habitat wise. Here in the SW that much chow would have all the critters dispersed { and tougher to find } –haha. However I imagine Michigan has a lot of WTs,and therefore a very promising outlook for the season.
