        <![CDATA[ During practice last week (or I guess the week before), my Osage bow &quot;It&quot; , which I&#39;ve been shooting for two hunting seasons and was in my third
3D season, gave a little groan on the first shot. I didn&#39;t really think the scarey noise could be from my beloved first Osage bow but I gave it a glance
over, and saw nothing amiss and the shot had been spot on. As I drew for my second shot, &quot;It&quot; groaned twice, most pitiousy. I let down without
releasing, and looked again.... ]]>

			<description><![CDATA[ Thanks, Ken. I don&#39;t think that a second repair would last even as long as the first. A different, major repair, in my understanding, would change the bow
too much for it to be worth it to me I think. So, it&#39;ll stay a wall decoration, with memories, for now at least. The &quot;Robin Hood&quot; is my one and
only one ever and I did do it with one of my traditional bows, during a &quot;bale&quot; type practice session (at about 12 yds). It was a <u>very</u> goodday!

			<description><![CDATA[ Really sorry about that Bernie... That is a drag. It reminds me of part of a story I&#39;ve been writing in my head for a long time... I&#39;ll have to tell
you about it sometime.
<br>
<br>
I hope you make another one soon. I know you might not want to hear it... But is there a way you could possibly fix that bow? Sounds pretty hopeless, I know,
but...
<br>
<br>
Like the &quot;Robin Hood&quot; up on the wall with it...
<br>
<br>
Thanks for sharing the life of this bow with us!
<br>
<br>
Ken ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ My very first yew bow gave out last weekend, i know your pain..<img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/embarassed.gif" alt="image">
<br>
<br>
My bow gave out mid limb so its new lease of life will be as a walking stick for the mother in law. Wish i had enough to save it for a wall hanger <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/frown.gif">

			<description><![CDATA[ Bernie,
<br>
<br>
I&#39;m sorry to hear of your lost hunting buddy.  When I lose a bow, I usually give it a viking funeral.  You decommissioned yours very well, giving it its
proper place of honor.
<br>

			<description><![CDATA[ Yep, that&#39;s about the size of it, Alpinbogen, and thanks. I think i will put a similar feather (I have a small bag of them) on my Dano bow now - kinda got
used to that (for wind indication and decoration) hanging there. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Sorry about your &quot;loss&quot; Bernie.  But hey, it sounds like you had a couple of good years out of it anyway and now you have a cool wall display.  Sinew
patching over a back violation only prolongs the inevitable, IMO.  I did the same thing on one of my early bows.  It held out long enough to get me through a
hunting season and kill a pair of whitetails, but the limb started the snap, crackle, pop thing and hinged that winter.  Mine&#39;s on the wall too, along with
another bow, both... ]]></description>
