Easton FMJ came apart soon as it left the bow. Made a terrible sound and the short piece with fletchings glanced off my forearm and the long piece ended up in the ground 10yds short of target.
Always check your arrows. This one had a small dent right at point of failure from slapping against another arrow during practice. It still spun true so I didn't cull it.

Genesis 27:3
I've seen this many times. It became common when short bows came out and using string loops. Make sure your setup isn't pinching the nock and pushing it forward slightly. If so, you will have a little gap between the string and the bottom of the nock. This allows the string to "slap" the arrow instead of pushing the arrow. May not be the case here, but it is something to check.
