You know I dry fired my PSE Mohave once. And it survived. I had one axle slighly out of round. But shot fine. I had a hard time selling that bow. And ended up selling bow, case arrows, new string/cable, and tuned and arrows for $180. But I also thought about doing a test to see how many dry fires it would take before something went terribly wrong.

I wonder why these new bows cannot survive a dry fire at all. The cams on the new bows are so much lighter and (cheap feeling) than the older bows.

Wouldn't it be nice is the ATA's standard was a bow could survive one dry fire. But I bet that bow would wiegh 6lbs or more.
