    Wow.! Never seen a bow do that. I've always removed the string on my recurve, after shooting.

    I haven't had a recurve for a long time but I thought you had to destring it. That's what my dad had us do as kids.

    That wasn't the issue. All my bows rest unstrung after use.

    If you zoom in on the handle area you'll see the major delamination in the limb where the glass and bamboo seperated from the handle. Basically it broke with a big bang on full draw.

    If the glue fails or the bambooo or timber cracks it's asta lasagne baby.

    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
