Not to sound all wise,but I am getting rather long in the tooth!every failure is a lesson,at first every lesson is a failure!to be successful the horse has to be rebridaled many times before a failure becomes a bow!
Some like motorboats,I like kayaks,some like guns,I like bows,but not the wheelie type.

Could be cancer.  The death of a child or parent.  So many things that could knock someone down for the count, where we could all understand the desire to just give up.  A broken bow isn't one of them, really.  Not making lite of your frustration, but this is all for fun, mostly.  Keep it in perspective would be my advise.

Bruce, jump back on that back and build a Horn bow. And send that new Glass bow to me to relieve you from any temptation to back peddle. ;)

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Hang in Man, I once broke 4 bows in a half a day on the tiller tree, 1 right after the other, never seen anyone of them coming, :) go simple for 1 or 2 and just get a shooter then al will be right again. ;) :) :)

I just need to get the wind back in my sails I guess. It's been a long hard winter

Keep your head up Bruce. Building things is my only escape. If it wasn't for the time in my shop I would be a wreck. We had a miscarriage in December, my Grandpa died the end of January, My Yellow Lab Pete died 2 weeks later. Add in frustrations with work and it makes for a stinky stew. At least I have bows to get my mind off of my crap storm of a life. Hit me up on messenger if you ever need to talk.  :-\
