Lost/broken equipment?
 
I was wondering who might have lost and or broken any of their bowhunting equipment so far this season? I have lost/broken 4 arrows. Two that I killed deer with (I won't use them twice on a deer), and two that I lost in tall grassmissingmy big Alberta buck.:(

What ever happened with the Alberta trip? I don't remember seeing a story or anything.
I've broken 2 arrows this season, on the doe I killed.

I left a EZ Bow Hanger in a tree in lower PA, a broadhead target in NC and ruined several blades. The arrows I shot my deer with are still good.:D

2 arrows broke on the same buck. 1 broke when i spine shot him, and the other broke when i put the finisher on him and he rolled and snaped it.

I rolled a tip on a Magnus Snuffer, Magnus is replaced it for free. I also broke 2 S.G.H.(Small Game Head's), G5 Outdoors sent me 6 new heads to replace the 2 that I broke! I have to refletch a couple of arrows due to pass thru on animals! Other than that I've had a great season of Fun and its not over yet!!:)

Hey I FOUND a BH target:):D(It's not been harmed, I assure you)

I've lost two arrows in deer......broken four more.

I lost a headlamp that clips to your cap.

That's about it. Not bad, for as much as I've hunted.

Sucks about missing, but at least you still got the job done. Not a little 9 at all, congrats!

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.

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 lost one of my favorite stocking hats.. does that count? :D

but the one that really sack punched me was my camera breaking down.. its toast..

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.:D

A pair of those $1 Wal-Mart gardening gloves I use bowhunting.

Ouch, it still hurts to think about that. :D

Seriously tho, how do you guys lose/break all this stuff? I always tell a deer before I shoot it not to break the arrow, there expensive. ;)So far they've listened.

Last year I hid my deer cart in Minn. so no one would steal it. Guess what, I drove away without it! [&o] It was still there waiting for me this year:D

I also stuck my knife in a tree after gutting a deer (so I wouldn'tlose it). I didn't lose it. I know exactly what tree it's stuck in!:D

Bushnell 1000 Arc rangefinder. Put it on top of the pickup and drove off.6 weeks old. That one hurt.

1 broken arrow this year from a buck. Also my string was really wore out and just got that replaced 2 weeks ago after the close of the PA archery season. I needed to replace the string before the season but I ran out of time unfortunately.
