Went over to the post office to mail out my MOAB that I traded and the clerk said to hold on. She came out with 2 packages for me.
I just unwrapped my new (to me) 58" 50@28 Centaur Carbon Elite AND my 58" 52@28 Granite Ridge Real McCoy. Only thing that sucks is that I'm at work and won't be home to shoot them until tomorrow evening. Man is it ever going to be a long 36hour shift.
First impression of the Centaur is WOW! What a beautiful bow and the low grip without finger grooves feels great. Second thing I noticed is just how light this bow is.
The Granite Ridge has more mass and it too feels good in the hand and is also a good looking bow.
I'll not be able to post shooting report until tomorrow evening on these 2 beauties. I might be able to snap a few phone pics and post them up today though.
Two at a time...that the way to get new bows :readit: :D
Here's a couple quick pics.

Gotta'love those Centaurs. :archer:
Beautiful bows!
What is the risr material on the Centaur?
Scott,
The riser on the Centaur is Bocote and palm swell is ziricote. No mystery materials...
Wow Brad two at a time...
I mailed the bow from the Kenai, Alaska Post Office on Ssaturday at 10:15am. Brad received it in Michigan on Monday! Killie would be proud! Here is a close up of the riser.

The plane must have caught that jet stream tail wind just right!! I shipped a bow to a guy 150 miles north of me July 2-he got it July 7. He mailed his to me on July 2, I got it July 5. I guess his bow had a downhill run, while mine had to go uphill!!
The post office is funny like that sometimes. Sitting here just staring at these 2 bows is killing me. :banghead: :D
Great looking Centaur. They are shooters!
