Default RE: Killed a widow tonite

Chad,

The bow length was 58"es, the weigth 55lbs. He nabbed a smoking deal on the 2 bows at the same time. The first was hung in a cabin in the middle of no where. The bow was strung and one of the guys there managed to nock it down. The bow split about mid limb to the tips right down the glue joints in what looks like the uni directional piece of glass, or whatever the lam is in the middle.

The last bow also split mid limb but wasnt able to make it to the ends. Splitting right down the middle inbetween the lams, with a fracture to the tips.

I will tell you no, neither where heavy weights. As far as long limbs goes, I dunno what the actual limb itself measured at but both bows were 58"ers.

I have many homes for that Robertson, just no one willing to put put out the doh <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>! If she was a 66&quot;er she'd never leave my hands!

Btw, I havent fixed the crack in my riser either. I was asking Loel just how in the heck I am going to pull it off as the crack doesnt go all the way through, just one side. Thinking I had better send it to Marc, he's da man!
