Crotch Horn, Hi, this is Chad of "Lost Creek Bows", and thanks for all the praise and nice words on my craftmanship and design, also the comments about myself personally, I really appreciate it all, I'm blushing over here, LOL. I haven't had any problems with tip overlays or the limbs breaking off, maybe it's due to the use of the previous owners? Crotch, if you would like, send the bow back and I'll fix the limb tip, but you will have to get in contact w/me personally and explain the exact damage to give me an idea of what I can do for you as warrenties only go to the original owner for 1 yr. Call me please, as I'd like to know that you're happy shooting a "Lost Creek". 641-660-1070
