Title: My Centaur is back with skins and a surprise!
Post by: Seth Stevens on March 19, 2015, 10:36:00 PM
A little Over a week ago, I sent my bow off to Jim Neaves to have Canebrake skins put on. I received it today with a little surprise.

My wife went behind my back and contacted Jim. She had him add a grizzly track carving on the back side of the grip. She also had him use some of the remaining skin and add it to a new Selway strap on quiver.

I am blown away by how it all came out!
