My new Centaur..ITS HERE!!!
« on: May 06, 2014, 10:16:00 PM »
About a week ago I got a phone call from Jim Neaves of Centaur Archery because he had an instock chimera than came out at my weight. I said okay well send me some pictures. This is what I got.

   

   

I called Jim and told him I would pass because I wasnt crazy about the turquoise.

I spent the next day thinking about it and staring at the picture. Without getting too mushy I'll explain why I decided to buy it. I was talking to my fiance about the bow and how I wanted my next bow to be the one bow that I have forever. Long story short the bow ended up reminding me of her (she has blonde hair and blue eyes) and now it is on its way to me.

A picture Jim sent me Friday night.

   


This is my second centaur so I know how this bow is going to shoot lights out and look amazing.

No doubt about it Jim's bows are light out! Can't wait to see the finish bow.  Are you getting Finger grooves?

I didn't do finger grooves on this one because I don't use them. I did add a thumb rest though.

One week isnt too bad of a wait time for one of his bows    :readit:      :goldtooth:

Yep, I think it'll look great. I love Centaurs and cannot wait to have my own someday.

Scott, I don't think the bows gonna work for you. I think that turquoise color is gonna  mess it up. Being a really good guy I'm willing to do you a solid and you can ship it to me. Although it will be painful to look at and to shoot I am willing to suffer through it.   :goldtooth:   I love my Centaur!
