RE: How many people have missed a Booner?
I missed possibly the biggest 8 point I've ever seen anywhere - including in magazines and at hunting shows. THREE TIMES,my arrow started to fall off the rest as I began to draw on him (I was still using fingers back then). I finally reached full draw and saw the arrow start lifting off the rest due to finger pinch. I canted the bow so the arrow would go back to where it should be and banged the tip of it against my rattling antlers![:@][:@][:@]
He took his eyes off the doe and looked right at me while I standing there at full draw with an arrow that's not even on the rest! I missed that monster and a friend witnessed the whole thing. All together, four of us saw the huge buck and we allagreed that his G2's were about 18" and his G3's about 15. He was a gigantic 8 point and had a spread of about 23 -25".
