Default RE: Well after 20 years of tying to the back of the arrow, it finally happened

I've had my share of near misses over the years; I switched to slides at the beginning of this year.

Since I use a drum reel (I'll get a Zebco 808 soon), I found that the string occasionally gets wrapped around the bolt that attachesthe reel to the bow. Usually the string breaks and I lose an arrow; sometimesthe arrowsnaps back at my legs. I didn't want to tempt fate so I switched to slides.

Glad you didn't get hurt.
