Its hard to see due to blurry pics but it looks like it separated in the lamination and the corewood is missing from the nock to the tip??
If it was mine i would make a template from the other tip so i get the bend right and then try to make a replacement for the missing wood at the tip,glue it with some good epoxi and wrap it to the template with innertubing and be prepared it wont feel the same even if the repair holds up..But im a rookiebowyer so someone else may have a better idea.

Its hars to tell from your photos But Maybe !
You need to make a form ,
rogh up the glue lines ,
Use  (Smooth on)epoxy, its availible from most archery supply places
Since your asking for advise you probly should send it back to whomever made it for repairs ! They already have everything thats needed on hand!
It will take anyone else more time to make the forms than to do the rest!
Have fun

Unless it has sentimental value, I would pitch it and buy another.

Thank you friends, for their advice, but where I live, (Venezuela), unfortunately there is no archery shops, and is very difficult to get any bow, I bought this on ebay recently Venezuela with another take down and an Olympic yamaha for I want to fix it, without danger, is that possible? I have also made ​​some reinforced flatbow longbow and they are the tendon that I like, primitive all.

 Sorry for not putting the pictures in the right place.

 Then I will put some pictures of my primitive bows to see what they look like.

 regards

Juan
I think you should give it a try then !
Do you have epoxy glues there ?
high strength super glue may work since its used to put the tip overlays on ,but I have no experience with it on this type of repair !
how much would shipping be from US for a little glue ?

thanks guys, if I have two component epoxy resin, but the problem is that wood lamination breaking a piece missing, so I was thinking lamination cut straight across and place a piece of bamboo to replace the lamination missing. and the felon's tips do with bone or a harder wood. would be correct to do this?
