Came home from work to find to tubes in the mail, and my birthday ain't for another week!

Could feel the blood pumping as I carried them home and laid them down, ready for the unveiling^^

 

Let's test you skill on bowmodels/makers    
First one to be opened is the brown tube.
Hint: It's a European maker

 

 

Got it yet? No?

 

 

This one's fairly unknown yin the US I think
It's a Falco Storm. 54" 33@28, Bocote and black glass. Also has the recurve grip option.
If I remember correctly bows from Falco have won a lot of tournaments in the EU, which at their modest price is good.

Now for the next one^^

Beautiful wood, I love Bocote.

Well, this one is to easy for you, so no guessing needed!







That's right, it's a Centaur! With a really nice Cocobolo riser and dark Myrtle limbs.
I also opted for the XTL lam.
The bow is 58" and 40@28.



I really have to hand it to Jim Neaves, he sure builds a nice stick! And customer service is over the top.
He told me a couple of weeks ago that the bow had some blems on the upper and lower belly and he would build me a new one if I wanted.
After seeing some pics, I decided to go for the bow, as they didn't seem that big.
He gave me a discount and sent extra strings and was a real craftsman to deal with! He sure stands by his product!

Anyway, gonna shoot them tonight, and I'll post an update later!
In the mean time..





Both bows arrived safe and sound, and as promised! Thank you Jim and Siim for a great pre-birthday present  :D

Stunning bows!  

Nice bows - two in one day, you must not be married!

Not anymore  :D

That's one of the nicest Centaurs I've ever seen!!!

great looking bows!!!

Hey Svein, I really like the Falco, he did a great job merging the bacote and the glass. Very sharp looking! How do you like that textured finish on the Centaur? Looking forward to seeing your reviews. Good shooting!

Talk about a great day!!! That centaur is a hot number. Gives me some daydream material. Have fun.

Two great looking bows in one day! Let us know how they shoot.  

The cocobolo on that Centaur has got to be the best looking block of coco I have ever seen!!! Stunning!!!!

Congrats on some nice bows!

Gonna sell the Harley, and start buying more bows, oh wait I just ordered my last one. Well maybe not. HMMMM? 7C

Congrats on two beautyful bows Svein!

Well, if you are overwhelmed with them you can send one to me for a while!(LOL) Nice bows, I have also read about the Falco being a winner across the pond! Shawn

Really nice bows.  The myrtle on your Centaur looked like black glass at first, like it dark like that!
