Tragedy strikes!

BowEd:
Sorry to see that happen.How much reflex was your bow in before tillering?
It's hard to notice but after time a person does start to get a thicker skin about these bows.

bownarra:
More sinew was needed!
Sinew backed juniper bows need a LOT of sinew if you are going to strain the belly appropriately :)
A 60" bow would need at least 3 - 3 1/2 ounces.

gutpile:
soak it and strip the sinew off.. gut

Buckskinner:
That's a bummer!  But why go to juniper if you have hickory available...

sinew backed juniper is one of the all time amazing combos. :) just make sure you add plenty of sinew.
