"Centaur came down to Georgia"
« on: March 18, 2010, 04:00:00 PM »
Got my Centaur Chimera 58" 54@28 today from Jim. I told him I wanted something a little unique. I asked him if I got him a head, could he inlay it, said he would try. I asked Woody "Knife River" if he could knap me a head along the color and size I needed for it. He came through with a fine looking Tecovas Jasper stone from South Texas. Thanks again Woody. Dark heart Cocobolo and Chechan riser. Chechan and black Micarta accents. Bamboo cores. Jim added Sheephorn grip, thumbrest overlays and tips to it. Stippled grip, Western Juniper veneers on belly and Woven Carbon back. Had him put me a small thumb ledge on it, really feels nice. Had to show pics of her, hope you like em !!!. Thanks Jim, I am proud to have it.

Froggy

Jims talent is something to behold. The Centaur is the best shooting bow I have ever shot.

I 3rd the WOW.  If I had the self control to only own one bow, it would have to look like that.
