I also would agree with robinhood36 and the elk scenario he states is most definatley true. i was pulled back on a cow towards the end of the season, i missed a couple of oppurtunities for a few nice bulls, but the shot wasnt there. But i was pulled back on this cow for probably a min, but felt like 5. I ended up having to let up becuase my body was shaking. Boys, after that i hit the gym!
