...and it says Centaur all over it. :bigsmyl:
All I can say is WOW. The bow is beautiful. My poor attempts at picture taking do not do this bow justice. I wanted a nice working bow with a little flash to it. It is a work of art. The Dark Matter definitely adds weight to the bow. The olive ash melding into the dark Matter just looks cool. I like it. I tried to feel a seam where the two halves join. Nada. Nothing. If it wasn't for the screws, I'd think this was a one piece bow. I took a few shots with it but the wind has just been terrible here so I am looking forward to doing some serious tuning.

Cool bow, it looks great!
That is an awesome looking bow! Congrats! Give us your thoughts when you get a chance to know her a little better! Then go shoot something with it! ;)
This bow is 58" 49@28 Chimera so it has one layer of carbon. I also ordered the XTL lam. Dark Matter because of the two piece requirement and Olive ash on the belly. I agonized over spending the money on this bow. Now that I have it in hand, it was worth every dime. I love it. Jim makes one hell of a bow. I called him earlier and told him as much.
Eric,
Great looking bow, i'm sure it will shoot as good as she looks! Let see the tips!
WOOOOOW!!!!!
I hate to tell you but the tips are the usual plain vanilla perfect Centaur tips.

I'm sure Jim's list isn't getting any shorter. He has a real winner in the Dark Matter takedown. :thumbsup:
Bill
It really does make a difference. Try it. You'll like it.
:bigsmyl: :bigsmyl:
I wish I could take better pics to show how kick a$$ this bow really is. I may buy another bow but I don't think I'll ever buy a better bow. Get on Jim's list. you won't regret it.
Great looking take down.
