I've being meaning to do this test for a while,...here we go
My 3rd bow is a selfbow, immediatly developed huge compression fractures on both limbs,
I really shot the bow a lot, even hunted it a few times taking a few mongoose,contrary to what should be expected the bow never suffered, so I'll try bend it to the end and see how much it can take,, this should be fun
The other one, my 5th, is a bamboo backed Guava, In those days I had no idea, and left the boo really thick, it developed a huge compression fracture on the lower limb. I'm not exagerating when I say it looks like a crust displacement after a big quake, and goes from boo edge to boo edge, glued a few layers of coconut fiber than wrapped with artificial sinew, and shot the bow a lot, but not hunted it.
it will be a fun day, hope you'll enjoy the show
