Roy I considered that. The problem is adding a backing would take away everything that makes that stick good looking. Maybe I will just hand it over to some poor soul at the Classic.

That does suck! That thing was looking good too. I had one just like lift a splinter too. I was shooting it and it just let go a bit.  Sure does suck though. Like I said, I have been shooting yours and already have a backup plan just in case. Gotta love wood bows.

Thinking about a "Burning of the Bows" at the Classic. We could all pile up our duds and send them off properly in flames, together!

How big a splinter are we talking about? What's that saying I see posted here now and then... If there is no pic it didn't happen? If you could slap some rawhide on that one, it sure looks worth salvaging.

Come to the Classic and its your Bulldog. Take her home, wrap it or rawhide it and you will have yourself a 50-51 @ 27" bow. Ive fixed worse, but no way is a gift bow leaving with any repairs on it.

End of last year I burned all my broken bows and reviewed in my head what I learned from each. It was really a cool little moment and made a warm fire ???

That would be a fun Classic event. The Broken Bow Bonfire. Everyone save all your breaks for the year and celebrate with everyone else with a glorious bonfire.
