I don't know. With a little rawhide, some sinew and a couple of 1/4" carriage bolts it should be good as new. >:D

Looks like you shut it in the door of your mobile bow shop  ;D  Remember when our squirrely friend across the pond broke his bow that way  ::)

I seriously think you should wrap the crap out of it with sinew. Think of it as a test, a challenge, if you will.  >:D

As it's completely shot why not sinew wrap it or thread and glue just to see how long it takes to go pop. On a tree rather than your hand mind.
