30 year old Fiberglass Bow - Functional or Dangerous
I have a youth bow from the mid-1970's that I had when I was a kid. It is made of fiberglass and has hung on a bow rack (that I made in shop) for the past 25 years unused. Now, my kids are interested in shooting and I am wondering: Is this old bow still usable? Or is it dangerous? That is, is the old fiberglass likely to shatter or break and cause an injury if the bow is shot?
I would like to string it up and let the kids shoot it a bit to see if they are interested in getting into archery, in which case I would go out and buy them new bows. But I don't want to use the bow if the fiberglass has weakened with age and might cause an injury. Thanks. |
