Yeah, why risk trying to shoot them, clean up and restore the cosmetics, then get some bamboo and make yourself a copy of the one you like best!!!!

i persoanly would leave them, but if your adement about doing it, you may consider using fish blader glue and brining the boo to a  high moisture content (say..25%) then alowing the whole lot reach equilibrium, but to ensure even drying you would have to remove the finish, try 000 steel wool, still those bows could be worth something
