Well folks this one died a horrible death this morning. I had worked out the hinges and some limb twist as seen here.
I had the bow drawing to 10-12", and was excercising the limbs, when she exploded pretty violently. Luckily, I was standing 12-13' away from my tiller tree. It looks like the cypress just couldn't handle the shear strength. I should have known better! This cypress was pretty, had straight grain, but was feather light.
Well, you know what they say. If you ain't breakin, you ain't makin! On to the next one!
