Sorry to hear that. I've had it happen twice, luckily i wasn't injured either time. The first time was an old Bear recurve, top limb broke when I pulled it back, it twisted as it broke so it didn't hurt me. The other a compound, pulled it back and a cable broke and the top limb broke. I don't know how i came out of that unscathed? A scary experience for sure. Hang in there and good luck.
