Withdrawing
I am going to have to withdraw from the Vegas league. Iwas shooting on Tuesday and on my third arrow the arrow must have shattered on release. The tip of the arrow continued on. The tail shaft went into my left hand betweem mt thumb and index finger. Missed the bone but did nick the artery. Right now I have my hand in a temporary cast. Had surgey to fix the artery....the doctor pulled out three big pieces or arrow and she said thousands of small fibers. I will have some pictures to post up....it's hard enough to type with hand as it is.
Any body heard of anything like this happening before??

RE: Withdrawing
Sorry to hear that goosehunter , I know that had to hurt and you must be in alot of pain.
I hope and pray that your hand heals up fast before your turkey season opens up and you'll be able to shoot your bow again.
Good luck and God speed on your recoverey.
