I did that one time and one time only. In a "lapse in attention" I moved, bumped the bow and watched in horror as it fell to the ground. I ended up having to replace a bent cam.
I use an EZ Hanger and have the bow right in front of me. When I hear or see deer coming I'm already on my feet with my bow in my hand turned toward the deer before they get close enough for a shot, and believe it or not that's almost always. Very rarely does a deer sneak in and surprise me. I spend all of my time on the stand watching and listening. I don't play games, text or surf the web. I pay attention and hunt. In my opinion it's the best way to prevent excess movement when a deer is in range.
