Bow in Trouble

[dbd870]

Took the KMag out to shoot just a while ago, first volley seemed normal. Shot 2 more arrows and it was much louder. Stopped and looked at my arrows; neither are straight into the target and are going in at different angles. Unstrung and examined the bow; top limb appears to have a slight twist now and it feels to have lost a few pounds in draw weight. Don't see any delam etc. in the limb but something is not right. Don't think I'm going to take it out hunting tonight! Shot the grizzly a bit just to be sure I'm comfortable with it. I'm suspecting that limb has an internal issue?

Too bad I love KMags

Anything wrong with the string????

[dbd870]

String is excellent

Put the limb in some hot water and twist it the other way and hold it for a while.

String it up and measure the distance from the fadeouts to the string and see what the measurements are? Be careful stringing it up in case something lets go.

I tried to restring it and the top limb twisted severely when I started to pull on it - I'm thinking it's done for now.

Don't shoot it.

Sounds like you have a nice "wall hanger". It is curious how some bows seem to live forever and others do not. I always have my "alert" mode on when I string up my 72 SK.

Hate to see a Grayling bow die - yeah don't worry - I won't!

There was just a post a while ago about a Martin Hunter that checked out below the marked draw weight...then a few days later that bow delaminated...sounds like what is happening with yours...all good things come to an end
