Navy,
My Doinker does not hardly reach the ground. <grin> I have shot with the doinker for about 4 years, and have had no problems. It seems to be holding up fairly well. I have also seen mine bent at some sharp angles from time to time while hunting, with no apparent ill effects.

I've had mine bent at some pretty sever angles also It's not something I make a practice of doing ALL the time, but it does happen, sometimes beyond my control!!!![]

I'm of no help, the only doinker I have is too long and heavy to use on a hunting bow...



You do know this thread is hopeless, right?

Well, I have my doinker bent into some pretty extreme positions during one acrobatic "hunting" move or another, and it has never broken. It really doesn't even show much sign of wear[:-]

Hahahaha, man this thread is not going to get anywhere!! I shoot a 4" Doinker on my Mathews, and have had it on other bows for 4 years and it has not broke at all, but my other one is way too long, probably could not even use it for 3D shoots!! It is wat to long, and too big, offbalances the bow!!
