Whats the worst, you cut yourself with a broadhead?

I had an arrow laying on the back of my truck and put my hand down and laid my finger open pretty good.[:@] Nothing a little super glue couldn't handle.

Anyone ever been shot by an arrow?

I have nicked and sliced my fingers pretty good... but nothing serious....

I tried takeing thunderhead's off an arrow without the tool and the thunderhead won my thumb was hanging by skin pretty bad(clean cut)12 stitches and 2 days before season gosh that was like 18 years ago

This is really embarassing, but this year I used 2 blade gladiator mechanical tips. It was getting near end of legal shooting time. 3 does came in and behind some thick brush and timber I could hear some scraping and steps. I grabbed my bow and out pops a Lone Tom Turkey. I wanted to shoot him out of spite. I stood up (with the gladiator tip still on my rest) and went to adjust my back and stabbed myself in the backside of the knee. I got home and my pants were wet. I was lucky I didnt hit the popliteal artery back there. Nothing a little superglue didnt fix. The glue didn't fix my shamed ego when I told my wife the truth.

I've got a nice scar on my right thumb from some old Savora's... Cut it twice... now I wrap a rag around broadheads when taking them off

I sliced my thunb and for finger up pretty dang bad when taking off a slick trick!

I left a blood trail running to the bathroom then outta the house!

I was very nearly shot by a customer at the gun shop I used to work at. Had one close call with a 12 gauge (which was beyondscary... had to take the rest of the day off to get the color back in my face after that one)and 2 other close calls with bows.

The one bow instance that comes to mind is when I was helping a fellow make his peep rotate squarely to his eye. I think I put a half twist in the string or something like that and handed him his bow back. I turned around to look for the blue Tru-Fire No Release (which is just a hook that simulates a release... for safety sake). This guy refused to draw his bow without an arrow on it... which is fine... but you have to take necessesary precautions. As I turned with that release in my hand.... whoooshhh.. right past my left arm and into the press went a Beman ICS Camo Hunter with a field point aboard... apparently some people get to eager and can't wait for the No Release. I have had a few customers flat refuse to use it... which doesn't sit very well with me.

Other than that.... I was assembling a Muzzy a few years ago and my finger slipped.... Goat Tuff saves the day again.

when i dont have a tool handy, i almost always end up with a nice little slice i usually carry a tool handy though...

watched my buddy slice up most of his fingers. he never heard of a tool for tightening heads...he didnt even know he cut half his fingers. they werent bad..but almost all his fingers were bleeding lol..

my old arrows were cut a hair past the prongs on my rest. bad i know...but saved me 100$ in arrows to get properly spined arrows...long story short, i drew back and over drew through the valley. head hit the prongs and flew off the rest and landed on my arm! somehow i was able to flip it onto the bow and let down...good thing i had on long sleeves...could been ugly...

Not a broadhead injury, but still a taleworth telling - I almost killed a bow tech back when I was still a kid -around 1992. I'd just graduated from the recurve, and had saved up enough grass cutting money to buy a 60#PSE round-wheeled compound.

I'd always been a finger shooter, so the whole advent of the mechanical release was a big step. So,the guywanted to measure my draw length with a release and askedme to draw the bow back (with a Bear Crackshot release). Just as I got it back, he got his face and fingers in there - startedmaking markingson the shaft. I anchored the release on my cheek, and pushed the thumb trigger accidentally with my face. POW!

Easton Gamegetter IIburied in the wall. Bow guy was white as a ghost -counting his fingers and his blessings.

Haha... that was instance number two.... Only it wasn't you of course Fran.

The guy I worked with on the bows at that gun shop was a pain in the ass. He was timing a bow and wanted me to make sure the cams were rolling over at the same time... and then if they were... mark the arrow so he could cut a dozen.... he was holding it back with his fingers..... I went to mark the arrow and was about 1/2 in away... thump.... it was pointed at the bag target... safety first of course. You could see the sharpie pen mark on the fletching of the arrow. I suspect there is still a stain on the floor where I was standing.... I made the boss get a ruler arrow after that one.
