Default Who would you tell

Up at the proshop today a fellow bowfisher was on cruches with foot all bandaged. When ask all he would say was shot in foot. Well to make this story short when shooting at a carp he shot himself in the foot.

Yeouch!

I've heard of shooting your boat before, but I'm not aware of any bowfishing related injuries.

I've shot myself with a knock before after hitting a rock and having the knock fly off the arrow back into my face. haha. No harm done. Funny though. WCL

Well, if your drinking and boating, expect to get hurt. I don't mean it in a bad way, just had friends killed by a guy driving a boat while drunk and run over them in their boat. People shouldn't drink out on a boat, just my opinion.

This is more than just an opinion. In many places, it is just as illegal to drink and boat as it is to drink and drive. It should be illegal everywhere. Just as with cars, most boating deaths have alcohol related. What's more, there should be more laws with regards to drinking and guns/hunting.

I disagree. I'd say a LOT further away.
