I must have gotten a little skinny there or something then. Glad to hear that those little pins shouldn't be much of an issue. I doubt the stave was too dry but who knows. It was cut in February and dried to the point of not losing weight. Funny thing was I had just looked over both limbs maybe a dozen arrows before blowup and it showed no signs of giving out.
I'm moving on and working on my first recurve and just about to bracing it. I will post pics with questions I'm sure...
Thanks for all the input on this one.
