Default RE: Dry Fired Hoyt - Help Please!

"Thank god you have a hoyt, they are built well, and will take a dry fire.
If you don't see anything wrong you are probably safe. I would still take it to the pro shop and have them check it out. You could have bent and axle and not know it. Better safe then sorry. "



I was thinking the same as above except that thank god it was a hoyt I am not sure they have enough zip to hurt themselves.

Seriously though I would keep an eye on it but every bow that I have ever seen dry fired had obvious problems right away or they were alright.

If you are pushing the limit of the bow with poundage there is usually a better chance of problems than if the bow is backed off alittle. I would keep a close eye on it and if it makes you feel better take it down to a shop and let them look at it.
