RangerClay Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Not being a bowhunter I don't hang out here so I apologise if these photos have been passed around before. A friend sent them to me wondering what may have happened. I told him I would check with the experts and get back to him. If any of know the story behind the pictures please share it with me. Thanks Ranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadHuntinPastor Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Re: Have you seen the pictures? Heard a couple of stories like this. Yes the Carbon Arrow exploded upon release and went into his hand. Little bit scary when you shoot carbons. vtbowhunter.....you know I'll be doing that faithfully with every arrow!!!

wtnhunt Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Re: Have you seen the pictures? That had to hurt. That is pretty crazy if he was shooting and the carbon exploded outward into his right hand? He must be a lefty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Re: Have you seen the pictures? I like blood, but that freaked me out!. A friend of mine was working something on his bow and put a arrow on his bed, with the broadhead on the end. Well, the arrowed rolled off his bed and went straight down with broadhead in front and went right through his foot. Stuff that shouldn't seem to happen happen just like that.

slugshooter Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Re: Have you seen the pictures? I must have missed those whenever they were posted, I posted one awhile back of some guy in vermont that had the broadhead and arrow sticking out the top of his skull.

popgun Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Re: Have you seen the pictures? WARNING: Graphic RangerClay, I posted these photos in a post back on Dec. 08 I never expected that one post to be viewed 5835 times. In fact, I don't recall so many views ever on a post that was not pinned to the top. I'm glad it brought attention to safety and properly spined arrows. .....popgun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
