Title: Well crap
Post by: Hoosierarcher88 on August 10, 2019, 10:20:25 AM: Well after about 8 months and thousands upon thousands of arrows she decided to throw in the towel. I would have liked to have seen more use out of the limbs but with no more than what the bow cost i guess i cant really complain too much. Lucky it just delaminated and didnt come completely apart at full draw

What make of bow is it?

its a cheap junxing ilf recurve. It looks like one of the lams itself has split. Probably a defect in the wood or something from when they made the lams.

under tension it all stays together. I didnt know it was bad until i took my string off. I had noticed it has been getting louder the last few times taking it out shooting
