With around 50 iI#ve made so far, I've broken like 5. But I recognized, as soon as one breaks, another one will break.
Example: I was building an elm takedown, when it broke right during the tillering. I was like: " Okay, great, lets shoot a bit.". So i took an elder bow, stringed itz up, drawed it out an BOOOOM!! another bow exploded

I didnt continue shooting. I'm sure otherwise I would have broken three bows that day
