Title: New Centaur
Post by: DTD on April 25, 2011, 08:59:00 PM
My new triple carbon centaur arrived today and it is an absolutely amazing bow. This bow has everything that I want in a bow. It's fast, quiet, shoots where I'm looking, and is a work of art. Within 3 shots, I was shooting it as well, if not better that my other bows. The turkeys are in trouble-well, probably not. I will post some pics as soon as I can get my teenage son to help me.

Here are a few pics-but they don't do the bow justice.

Macassar ebony with a thumb rest. 60" 55@29. These bows look simple but there is a lot of engineering in his design. It absolutely smokes an arrow and is very quiet. Jim is a great guy to deal with.

I really like the grip on that bow !! Looks like it would be very comfortable for this chunkie mit of mine  :)

Maybe post a picture of the shelf side of the riser?

Beautiful bow   :thumbsup:

It is probably a dumb question, but why triple carbon ?

Post by: TDHunter on April 26, 2011, 05:55:00 PM
Carbon belly, carbon back and a carbon lam in the middle!
