Kathy, I agree with your thoughts on carbon 100%, if you have a short draw, or are limited in draw weight, the carbon helps to level the playing field. If the "Magic Bow" becomes available, I would be interested!! The new one looks great, what are the tips? Jim's tip's are nice!!       Guss

They're sheephorn, Junior.
I would have to have a long talk with The Magic Bow before even considering the severing of our delightful handshake.

I have a question for you Centaur owners can you describe how they compare to a recurve as for smoothness of draw?

[GRINCH]

Kathy since my draw is 26&3/4 put me in line if you ever decide to sell,thanks Larry.

[Killdeer]

I have recurves that draw as smoothly as The Magic Bow, and recurves that draw like there's a mule backing up a ladder on the other end.

It all has to do with limb design, and where the bow stores energy in the course of the draw, and what the limbs are made of, how long they are, and what length draw the bow is designed for.

Balance this against whether the bow is a tad heavy for you, which will make you want to "attack" the string and get it back quickly, and your subjective feel of the bow will likely be different than mine.

Most everybody who has tried them tells me that Leon Stewart's longbows have the smoothest pull they ever felt. Every one of his bows that I have pulled has impressed me that way. This year at Baltimore I will pull one, and compare it against my foam-cored glass Cheyenne, and I bet there will be but a gnat's breath of difference. And I have no clue which will feel smoother.

Maybe you should get out there and do some testing your own bad self! There are worse ways to spend one's time.      :D

Good looking dog! Enjoy and good shootin!

[pdk25]

Very nice looking bow.  Your Morrison might get jealous.

[Killdeer]

It is.
My new Centaur is on a rack. The Magic Bow and the Cheyenne are laying on top of one of the piles of archery junk in the living room.

I feel terrible doing that, but the racks are full.

[animalistic]

[Killdeer]

I knew I should have left that dang Jindo in the truck!   :mad:  

Every family should have at least one good-looking member. That's why we have a dog.

well seeing that you got so many bows killie dear send one down this way then that way ya can put  ya Magic bow on the rack  then ya wont feel so bad  

[larry]

the racks are full  

and I'M the one with a problem???  

[Killdeer]

When I glom onto a bow, I generally keep it, Larry. I know, a foreign concept, but stay with me here. Because I rarely sell a bow, they tend to pile up. Your bow rack is worn to the bone, though, from all the wood sliding across it en route to and from all the corners of the globe, especially Montana.

Killdeer ~no problem!  

[larry]

ah...so the  true black hole of Centaurs and many other bows is found somewhere in the DC area  

[Killdeer]

Yup!
I have all two of them!
Mmwuuuuhhhaaaahahahahahaha!!!!

 

[leatherneck]

At least you have them lying together on the junk!  

[larry]

well, that may not seem like alot of them to you, but it's twice as many as I own
