Robert, We are talking about Jim Neaves, the man who builds Centaur bows.......Seth, Im glad you like the bow. I have five of Jims creations and have had another built since the one you have now and its a real looker too. Jims bows are fantastic shooters and I havent seen any that are as pretty either. I just prefer his one piece bows.

NW9 I have a take down that looks just like yours done by Jim Kneaves and it is holding up great. I used the prairie rattler because they are my closest neighbors.

Seth cant say where they come from. Got lucky when Jim posted this bow for sale on his page.

Charles Sinclair "Snakewood"on here (haven't seen him post in a long while through) is where I bought my Copperheads and Cotton Mouths from the Parries Rattler on another bow came from Jim.
Everything I have and have become is due to the Lord and his great mercy.

Seth, you have to check out bull snake skins by David Conroy.  He has a special way of tanning, the color is phenomenal and would match that riser very well.  They are some of the coolest looking skins in my opinion!  If you search PowWow I think you will find some of his skin work.

I like the subtle grey and brown of the copperhead.

Longbow917, I saw those and they look amazing! Too many great choices to pick from. Bull snake has now made it to the top of the list too!

I think whatever you choose will look pretty sweet on that centaur.  You have an awesome looking bow!  Centaurs are on my bucket list.

He will do any bow.  He did a refinish and applied copper head skins to my Proghorn.  His finish is the best and most durable you can get.  Can't say enough about his work.      :clapper:

I have bow skinned by many bowyers sponsors on here and all them make a fantastic job,but to me the way skins his bows is unreal and the skins look like they are been paint.
Any skin you like and matches your woods will work great.
