Jeremy,
The crack goes the laminations like this
and another one developed an inch away in the same direction. It makes me afraid that it will want to come apart in that location, although it is fun to shoot. I have a 60# Cub that is in really great shape, but it is a bit heavier than I like.
Robert,
I don't have much in the way of modern stuff, but I do have a 50# Ben Pearson Colt recurve. I can take pictures if you might be interested in it, and Jeremy decides against the Polar. Let me know if you would like some pics if something doesn't happen with Jeremy.
Remember, tomorrow is Fred Bear's birthday-March 5, 1902. Shoot a Bear bow in his honor!
Ron
