Lost/broken equipment?
#13
Lost 1 arrow. Shot at a doe and she took off running, looked like she hadn't been touched. No blood at all, and couldn't find the arrow. I'm thinking it was deflected into never never land by an unseen branch. Also, lost one quick pin for my API stand.

It's been a bad year for me.
broke my bow...forgot to make sure i cleard my stand
broke about four arrows...and the one i shot the deer with is still intact.
all in all it cost me $800.

I had a Cobra release fall apart on me while drawing on a doe. I have also left a bowhanger in a tree although I'll go back with a climber and get that.

I somehow cut the fiber wrap on my middle pin, sent it in to be rewrapped and replaced it..it is now a backup.
That is it I think...I quit taking a pack full of gear to the stand with me this year, and it helps with not loosing stuff and not moving...I realized the more stuff I have with me, the more I am tempted to move and use/play with it. Kind of like Grizz said about him not using binocs, before long he would be watchin birds, airplanes, looking down at his toes, etc...Having stuff at your fingertips is tempting.
