I've got one and had a couple George. You won't find a better or nicer bow. The 58" pulls smooth to 29" and shoots considerably faster than his one piece. I will also bet you that you can't find a better craftsman than Duane. The best description of his bows is flawless. The Centaurs may shoot slightly faster but nothing points better than a Thunderhorn or a Pronghorn in my opinion. The Thunderhorn is noticably faster than the Pronghorn though. George you're close enough where I might be able to get mine to you to shoot.

I better call Duane first thing Monday morning to get on his list for another one because when I start talking about his bows people will be sure to order a couple. Duanes' $850 bow will be nicer than any bow for twice as much. The detail in Thunderhorns is phenominal to say the least Duane is like a machine and you won't be able to find a flaw. I always shot his one piece bows until getting my first three piece and I now wonder if I will ever hunt with another bow. I go through bows as much as anyone but my Thunderhorns always stick around. I've been known to let some go but I always have 3 or 4 Thunderhorns on hand kinda like you George with the Centaurs. I always hand my Thunderhorn to people when they're having trouble shooting and they always let me know after they shoot it how easy it is to shoot. I've had similar experience with three piece Pronghorns but they don't seem to perform aswell as the Thunderhorn.

Jake had one of the the most stunning 3- PC Thunderhorns I have ever seen. All dark and serious.
I should have bought it when he had it up for sale.

                                Good Shooting,

Hey George,
Duane is in the shop 9-5 MT and I've got him on speed dial so it looks like I'm gonna have some competition Monday morning.

No problem George, I blame everything I do wrong on other people when it comes to staying out of trouble with my wife. You must be one or two bows behind me because I ordered mine Monday morning. What model, woods and specs did you order?

I ordered a three piece w/dark brown dymondwood riser, boo limbs and black glass. A killing Machine, 58" 57@27, 3 Month wait Alexander. In the meantime my wife is six months pregnant and I have three other bows which should be ready around the same time. Do I have problems?

3 months is not bad.  I bought a coupe stick from him a few years back. I've been very pleased.
