backyard archery practice.....gone wrong...
well today i finally broke out my bow and set up my usual target area consisting of a block foam target on the ground, 2 full size sheets of 1/2'' plywod built up behind it down in the back of my yard.....well on about my 4th shot (i was kicking butt up untill this point too) right as i started to pull back my bow, i got to about 1/2 draw and my string loop broke and my bow went off and launched the arrow up over my backstop (i raise my bow slightly while drawing, i guess i should try to breal this habbit) and it went over/through the 100' wooded area behind my yard and landed in some guys back yard.....so at this point im like DELETED ME! so i decided i guess i should go looking for it and about halfway there i hear "HEY WHAT THE DELETED FOR SKIRTINZG PROFANITY FILTER MAN!" the arrow didnt do any damage and just landed in this guys back yard but he was flipping out saying he is gunna call the cops if it ever happened again and blah blah blah...so i got my arrow back and apologized but has anyone ever had any problems like this? does anyone know the PA regulations for this type of thing? im kind of scared to shoot it now......
