My Centaur is no way as purdy as that one. Has that nasty carbon on back and belly. For those that are interested in speed it shoots a 530gr. cedar between 182 and 184fps. 56" bow, 56# @ 27". This bow has been timed several times and those are the numbers that she spits out every time.

Just double checked the weight on that arrow, 580grs. not 530.

Colors remind me of a nice sliver of Mook...

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.

Mookaite is a native Australian stone, which is knappable. Folks like to buy knapped blades of it because the colors are flamboyant reds, yellows, pinks, etc.

Here is a link to the results of a simple Google search:
