LifeNRA Posted July 2, 2005 Report Share Posted July 2, 2005 I was at Cabela's today and picked up my arrows. When all of a sudden I heard a crack! This guy had a bow drawn back! Suddenly it blew apart! The string snapped and hit his son right in the face! He was crying so hard it looked like he stopped breathing! He had a small abrasion like wound vertical on his forehead. But he was ok! I think this guy dry-fired this bow, but he said it just blew apart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christsavedme Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Re: Some People Just Don\'t Get It!!! The sad part is.....there are alot of people out there that would try to file a lawsuit against Cabela's if that happened to their son.......and knowing that the guy probably did dry fire it! Hope the kid is ok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Re: Some People Just Don\'t Get It!!! Still have yet to see that, and hope I never do. If I ever hand my bow over to someone I ask them if they know what "dry fire" means, if they say yes, I say "explain it to me." if they say no, I explain it to them, and then I watch very carefully if they want to draw it back. It's not even a good idea to draw a bow back with nothing on the string. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaDeerHunter Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Re: Some People Just Don\'t Get It!!! Glad the kid wasn't hurt worse! I never let anyone handle my bow! I hope they don't file a lawsuit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
