Welp,

I currently have a 60" centaur elite that is #52@29(i draw to 29.5). It has to be one of the smoothest, sweetest shooting bows I have ever shot. I have always shot around #50-#55; just never felt a need to go up in weight at all. I like the fact that I can take it out all day and shoot enjoy myself.

I sweet talked my wife into letting me get on the list for a custom. I knew exactly what I wanted. A centaur Elite 62" and around #58@29. As luck would have it, I saw a guy selling a 62" #56@28 centaur elite, so i bought it. It should be around #60 at my draw length and i'm betting it will be smooth as butter. I have some special arrows I got from Steve Angel at simply traditional that I needed a heavier bow to set them up for. They are Black Eagle Rampage(micro diameter .300's) that I will set this bow up with. I am pumped about it!

I will post pics as soon as I can get them uploaded.

Daniel, If it's too heavy for you I'll take it off your hands...

Is it as quiet as your Centaur I shot?

Daniel, beautiful bow! how about a full draw pic?

Joe,
it should be headed my way today. I will let you know. I am betting with a good string and some decent weighted arrows it will be just as quiet. IMO, a centaur is really sensitive on brace height. If it is 1/8", it will be considerably louder. I like mine right about 6 7/8".

I may have one for sell if this one works out like i'm hoping!

I know a guy who'll make you one.

BTW, nice pick up! Find another one in 2 pc and 6-10# heavier and I'll trade you a selfbow for it.

:p

I have a Centaur Triple Carbon Elite 60" 53@28 and it is my favorite shooter so far. Enjoy your new bow.
