Come to think of it there was one time.......I was at an indoor shoot about 13 years ago. It was in the wintertime and being held in an old armory. I went to draw back and my release broke into several pieces. I was about 1/3 the way back when it broke and I hit myself in the mouth giving myself a fat lip. I was not drawing level so the arrow flew up high and hit the wall of the armory and bounced around a few times. Of course all eyes were on me. We were picking up springs and broken pieces of release for several feet in front of me. I haven't raised my bow to draw since. Thats back in the 70 lb days.
That's exactly how I shot one of the rafters in the basement. I was shooting my dad's (the OP for those who don't know) bow which is left-handed (I'm a righty) and I drew with the arrow pointed up as well. OOPS!!!:eek: I no longer draw like that either.Quote:

Ive had this happen once, about halfway back and the loop gave out and i hit myself in the nose... a bloody nose and a long search for that arrow later... i burned the ends on the next loop i tied lolQuote:
