Centaur Owners
« 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

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

Curly Koa. VERY light in the hand.

Two koa, one Magic Bow. The Magic bow is Midnight Dymondwood and uh... ask Larry.

Gaboon Ebony and striped Asian ebony, in a Carbon Chimera.

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Those are some puuuurty bows!

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

Any Takedown pics?
