Title: Centaur Owners
Post by: chopx2 on August 27, 2010, 03:58:00 PM

I am on the list to get a new Centaur in Jan.

I am leaning towards a carbon elite because of how it shoots. It will be a T/D, but am having trouble deciding on woods. The dymondwood samples online are terribly inconsistent or hard to picture in a bow.

So can you show me yours and in Jan I'll show you mine    :D

Ok so now I am even more confused...I didn't even consider the chimera before, but maybe I should now...

Any Takedown pics?
