Jim was very accommodating to all my request, allowing me to pick and order the Lams (thanks Mike at Rosewood Archery) and incorporating the stipple on the grip from a drawing I sent him.

Now I have never shot a Longbow before in my life and didn't know really what to expect. My first impression are that the grip on the Centaur fits like a glove (it should it's design that way) and make it very easy to shoot.  I have been hampered with a shoulder issue the last 2 months so it was really hard to get good form on what few shots I took but the arrows seem to get there quickly.  I'll give a better review later when I get her tuned up.

One thing that stands out is how light she is (sorry ladies bow are naurally of the female gender    :saywhat:   ) compared to my BW PSA. Not that, that's bad as far as the weight of the BW just different in what I've been shooting.

Hey Ryan,

Thanks for pushing me toward the skins! As for "How does she shoot" not sure what to expect since 1. I'm not a very good shot and 2. My first experience with a long bow, but it is different than the BW and I will has to get use to her.
