Boy Jamie, That torques me almost as much as it does you. I had a lot of time into that bow, even if I only shot 3 arrows out of it.  :(

If you want another bow skinned, talk to me after the season. We'll see what we can do.

Jamie, I would definilty hang that one up, not worth the risk. You have got a couple of other fine bows don't take the chance. ED

Alright guys(and girl), I am retiring it. It has been hung up, unstrung since I found the crack.

Im gonna be shooting in a bit with the griff.

Brent, I got a lot of kudos on the skins at the Muzzy, FWIW.

Thanks everyone. Just seems wrong to hang up a bow ya didnt even get to draw blood with...

Full Draw while practicing in the yard.  I didnt get it too bad.  Just a welt on my bow arm.  But other than that no worse for the wear.

Forget it.  I took my '65 Kodiak with both limbs delaminated over to him last week and he took one look at it and gave me instructions on how to make a lamp out of it.

Jamie,

I'm sorry you didn't get to "blood" your bow before it probably ends up retired, but... on the positive side... at least it didn't end up being YOUR blood to complete that task!

Sorry it broke.  Maybe you should take it as divine permission to buy a new bow...   :saywhat:
