Centaur carved in "Stone" w/ pics
« on: May 19, 2010, 03:53:00 PM »
Mr Neaves has come through again. Just peeled the bubble wrap off this beauty. Chimera 58" 54@28. Brazilian Rosewood / Bacote riser. He inlayed a Obsidian Arrowhead into the grip. Belly veneers are Olive Ash that are nasty. He added a extra strip of carbon between the bamboo cores. Accents of Bacote / Rosewood. Stippled grip, Bighorn Sheep horn overlays on grip, thumbrest and tips. Hope the wife doesn't roll over on it tonight....    :D     Hope you folks like it, Jim is a great fellow to deal with.

That is fancy right there!
I like the look of the carbon on the back of the limbs and the wood veneer on the belly.

Makes me thing Black glass on the back and wood on the belly might be a good combo for the future.
Hide the bow from the game, and gives you something to look at when huntin is slow.

I sure wish you guys would not post these Centaur topics.   :knothead:   A few months ago I bought one from a tradganger and now he's wanting it back.    :(  

These bows are awesome, but now I guess I have to send it back home.  :rolleyes:  

Seriously, that one is gorgeous Froggy.  :thumbsup:

Absolutely gorgeous Lanier, congrats!!
Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

Wowwsaa! Is that grip an option or is that a custom/dreamt up sort of deal? I like it!

Anybody know if there will be any of the Centaurs at Cloverdale??? I wanna lay my hands on one.
