Default Repairing a recurve bow...HELP!!!!

Long story short...a buddy brought over a recurve last night. He was trying to restring it and some how managed to split the laminated limb apart. Its right at the end where the string attaches and is split for about 10 inches. The lamination let go on it. The bow itself is marked with a reverse D then a H

The name underneath that is Damon Howett....Pretty nice lookin bow I might add. Worth trying to fix or is it junk? If its worth fixing, who should I contact about it??

Likely done. Might look good on the wall. There are guys out there that can do the repair but they are in short supply. It also depends on how bad the delamination is.

That does not sound too promising. If it's a take down model you could get custom limbs made otherwise it is likely destined for the rumpus room wall

Glue it up and hang it on the wall.
