Mike, a couple of weeks ago I "tortured" myself over a 62" Double Carbon Elite with a Ruby Charcoal Dymondwood stippled arrowhead grip. After seeing yours I could kick myself for not buying it.
I hear ya Mike. That was the way it was with me and the Carbon Elite you had....just the timing wasn't right.   :knothead:  LOL! Sounds like she is serving TW well.   :thumbsup:

Lanier,

None whatsoever. I haven't shot much of anything else since I got my first Centaur....nothing compares or shoots as good for me as the Centaurs...and I've been through a ton of different bows looking for the ONE!

WOW, very nice. I have shot a early Centaur but may have to revisit a new one. Thanks for sharing the pictures and Congrats on the new  bow. Flint

For hunting to have a future, we must invest ourselves in future hunters.

Congrats on great looking bow. I've got a new to me Chimera coming, should be here Monday.
Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

I have shot the glass, Double Carbon, Carbon Elite and the new Carbon Chimera. I love them all! If I had to pick one, though, the Carbon Chimera has the zip of the Carbon Elite, maybe a tad more, and is quieter about it. Smooth little bow that feels like a friend.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

I agree Killdeer. I don't know how quick it is, but it flings them down range very fast. Jim says these new carbon core Chimeras and the Carbon Elites are within 2 ft/second of each other. I've never shot a Carbon Elite, but have a glass model and they ain't no slouch either!,,,Awesome bows!

Appears by the number of encouraging responses that you made a great decision.

Beautiful bow.

Congrats!!!!!!!

Super cool stick.  I really like the way it turned out.

Got all three, I will agree with Killie. The new design Chimera has as much giddy uo as the Elite with less noise.

really....I wish you guys and gals would stop talking up Jim's latest creation... maybe I should just put his ph # on speed dial  :eek:    :archer2:

I'm surprised you don't have a red "Hello Phone" next to your computer.

Anybody now what he changed up exactly?

What is this new carbon/foam core? I've never heard of it.

Drew

I'm curious too especially since i'm just a few orders out before he starts mine...AHHH!

I can't say for sure, but I don't think Jim uses the foam core. I think his Carbon Chimera has 3 laminates of carbon instead of the 1 or 2 he used to use. Maybe someone else can come on here and say for sure.
Until next time...good shooting,
Lee

Thats some fancy grip work! Looks fast.

HATCHCHASER

I sure would like to shoot one of those bad boys.  That is a nice bow.
It's not the arrival, it's the journey.

Beautiful bow Mike, they are hard to beat.

 What so amazing, he gets performance ALONG with stability, accuracy, and quietness all in one package with this design....not an easy task.
Could not agree more with that statment!

Nice Bow Mike!

I see off his website, he's just offering the glass or the carbon chimera...guess the carbon elite was replaced?
