There was zero bashing or venting. Just a new trad archer with a broken bow looking for advise.

I have never read anything stating this is any kind of ongoing problem with them. I would not be afraid of the warranty replacement.

I also have had high dollar bows explode. They were replaced as this one will be. The Sammick line has put a lot of "new" Archers with us. These days affordable is a big thing. I have thought about a Takedown for rehab from a minor surgery in 35 lbs. RC

Hey so I talked to Lancaster and in under 5 minutes the call was over and a brand new bow is being sent free of charge with a return label in it to send the broken bow back. The guy Ryan also offered me a refund but I wouldn't get the shipping refunded so I opted for a replacement. He also let me order a higher poundage draw. The original bow was 40. I got a 50 this time. Amazed at the costumer service of Lancaster. No small talk, just straight to the replacement.

Outstanding!  I wish everyone stood behind their products like that.  I have an $800+ bow hanging in my shop.  A friend bought it, it delaminated on the first draw.  Bowyer won't replace it.

Sammick makes a quality product so don't turn you head on them. I killed the biggest buck of my life 160+ with a samick sage. I will buy a one piece samick just to say I have one bc I will always be trusting of the brand after learning so much with a take down sage.
I'd rather be judged by 12 then carried by 6

Lancaster has been great with me in the past. I'm glad it worked out.

A word to the wise:
I bought my Sage from the local Bass Pro, paid retail ($139.00) but 'saved' on shipping. Fortunately I've had no issues with it. BUT...if I did, do you think Bass Pro would refund my money or exchange it?
I don't know, but I guessing the answer would be "very doubtful". Something to think about when purchasing from a source other than a dedicated player like Lancaster or 3Rivers.

Hey this might be a dumb question but I took a video of me shooting and It looks like the bow limbs are really stressing. Could this be why the bow snapped? maybe im shooting a bow thats just too short for my draw length. What do you think?

That depends on the bow length and your draw length. I have a 58" Bear Grizzly and a 52" Shakspear that I pull to about 29" draw and have no problems. Sometimes things just happen.

How does it feel to you.

The bow is 60", it looks fine at your draw. A recurve can take a whole lot more than you are giving it!

Your bow just let go. It happens.

Just don't ever dry fire it or let it strung in a hot car. That's usually how bows delaminate.
