RE: #$#$#$#^
 

It came that much apart while you were at full draw? Wow!

Most importantly... are you ok?

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

yeah got a cut on my left knee and a huge knott but other then that im fine. scared the crap out of me and the deer seasons only been open a week

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Wow! Thats a real bummer man. Any idea what happened? Are those custom strings?

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

THAT SUCKS!!!!!!!! Are the limbs busted in half???

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

wow... Glad your ok. that should at least be the bright side.

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

What a terrible way to start the season. Glad to hear that you are alright though. You could have been really hurt. Hopefully it isn't as bad as it looks.

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

What kind a bow is that, and what in the world do you think happened?? Dont leave us hangin here!?!?

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Wow....it seems like youve been lucky....i heard where thats seriously injured people.....
what kind of bow is it?

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

That stinks. At least you're ok. Last year something similar happened to me. As I drew back, the string came off the cam. Boy was I ticked off. See if the limbs are under warranty.

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Your Kidding Right.... Are sure you didnt run that thing over with a truck...

Glad your OK...

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Kurt and I both sit here and opened this thread, simultaneous HOLY .....

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

IS that a Bowtech?

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Since it came apart and no stress (like a dry fire) took place it might be fine. Would be a help to us all if you could share why.

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Glad baldntatted is OK

The only bow failure I've ever seen was a guy who was trying to reduce the poundage on a 60# bow for his little brother. One turn too many and the limbs left the riser as he was drawing. The aftermath looked just like the photo (he was ok too).

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

That was my thought, maybe tried to back it off a bit too much???

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

I am glad he is alright but, I wish he would share what had happened so that we all can be aware of it.

Possibly what had happened here as he doesn't want to tell us anything?

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

I reduced my draw weight this year (bum shoulder) from 70# to 63# and noticed my bow was louder (not "loud" though). When I saw all the rubber on that bow that's what instantly came to mind.

My next bow will have 60# limbs maxed out.

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Man that sucks

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Ouch! Sorry to hear that.

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

no i went to bed y i didn't answer lol the bow is only set at 63 lbs goes down to 60. it's a bowzone 1
No it was not run over no there was an arrow in it that shatterd in 3 peaices so no dry fire.

I just had the cable replaced cause i for some reason the bottom cam was cutting the string that was a new string got it last friday

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Yeah, I was just trying to deduce possibilities of what may have happened. Looked like the string was custom. Is there a burr on the cam?

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

not sure what kinda string is on there it came with the bow

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

yeah im sure lol

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Whats that on the end of your cable guard????

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

it's a bow jax silencer

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Did that come on the bow or did you put that on?? Do you think that might of had something to do with it?? Seems like stopping your string like that might affect something down the line! I could be wrong but it just seems like not a good thing!

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

no it came with that on the bow.

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

That same thing happened to me a week before the season starts.[:@]

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

found out it's a stone mountain string not custom made

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Bummer man, Glad your ok.

RE: #$#$#$#^
 

Wow, I am glad to hear your OK. Honestly, I would have had to change my drawers after that one. I worry about my string loop breaking or my release failing. But that thought hasn't crossed my mind!
