Default Lost/broken equipment?

I was wondering who might have lost and or broken any of their bowhunting equipment so far this season? I have lost/broken 4 arrows. Two that I killed deer with (I won't use them twice on a deer), and two that I lost in tall grassmissingmy big Alberta buck.

What ever happened with the Alberta trip? I don't remember seeing a story or anything.
I've broken 2 arrows this season, on the doe I killed.

I left a EZ Bow Hanger in a tree in lower PA, a broadhead target in NC and ruined several blades. The arrows I shot my deer with are still good.

I rolled a tip on a Magnus Snuffer, Magnus is replaced it for free. I also broke 2 S.G.H.(Small Game Head's), G5 Outdoors sent me 6 new heads to replace the 2 that I broke! I have to refletch a couple of arrows due to pass thru on animals! Other than that I've had a great season of Fun and its not over yet!!

I missed a 150"+ 8pt. I killed this little 9pt. Saw unbelievable rut activity!

Hey I FOUND a BH target(It's not been harmed, I assure you)

I've lost two arrows in deer......broken four more.

I lost a headlamp that clips to your cap.

That's about it. Not bad, for as much as I've hunted.

Sucks about missing, but at least you still got the job done. Not a little 9 at all, congrats!

Compared to that big ass 8pt, he's real small!
