KA-POWWW!

Bow was 64 @28". It was a tad heavy for my liking. It had some worsening stress cracks on the lower limb. I had them wrapped but more developed up limb. A little too thin on the growth ring in that area I guess. This bow was probably 3-4 years old and had LOTS of shots fired out of it. Better now than in the woods later...

Jim, is the bow osage? And by stress cracks are you talking frets, compression fractures on the belly or cracks or checks, drying cracks on the back?
 I hate it for you but been there, done that with an osage bow that had over 1000 shots through her. Mine was my fault, not the bows.

[razorsharptokill]

Yes, it is Osage. The cracks were on the back, not the belly and across the grain. Fatal for sure.

[Pat B]

Yep, cracks across the back is fatal.

I've experienced that a time or two...
Always very exciting:)
