911 BOW DOWN BOW DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
« on: March 18, 2008, 12:30:32 am »
 Need some help badly ! I have a Bamboo backed Osage I was shooting today and the Bamboo popped. It split in the middle and came loose of the Osage for about 8". I shot Guerrilla  in it Wrapped it with sinew and clamped it. Will this hold if not what would be better or is this one done? This is my Favorite bow its 12 years old and a old friendsure would hate to hag this one on the wall. Thanks for what help Ya ll can give me.

If a sinew wrap won't hold it, then nothing will.

I've not heard good things about Gorilla glue and glue ups. I would have used a good quality crazy glue or a warmed up epoxy. Epoxy when it's warm gets almost as thin as water

Thanks all! The Bamboo popped at the shelf then split up the middle for about 8". I have a camera but cant figure out how to download pica's to here. ( give me a broom handle a kite string and a twig and I will shoot something give me electronics and I will make a boat anchor out of it). And yes I thought this heading would get some looks ::) LOL
