Could be too high power bow on low rated or "slightly" damaged shaft.
On release, the shaft would receive tremendous pushing energy from the string,
a nicked or damaged shaft may shatter, break and resulted to accident like that.

Could he have had a rest that allows short shafted arrows? The arrow tip is often behind the hand with these type setups.

Thats not a nice wound to be wearing.
Carbon fibre is a wonder product but it does have its limitations.
Im a rower and National Umpire here in NZ and Ive seen Carbon fibre oar shafts explode when put under load. On examination its usually a stress point thats given way, those stress points may only be a pinprick in size but they sure have a way of ruining your day.
