RE: Newbie: What injuries have you sustained.....
This didn't happen to me, but to a friend of mine shooting compound in his first competition last year. His release aid broke as he drew. It was about when he was pulling the full weight (dark side - I don't understand such things). Result - fist in nose and blood everywhere. All was not lost as he went on to win the competition

RE: Newbie: What injuries have you sustained.....
I was pulling a stuck arrow from a boss on my own, it wouldn't budge, then i pulled extra hard, a sharp pain and my arm went limp, i nearly tore one of my back muscles in two, it took months before i could draw a boow with no pain.

RE: Newbie: What injuries have you sustained.....
Tennis elbow from being overbowed, hurt for about 18 months
Cuts through the knuckle on my bow hand from feather fletchings [changed nock position]
Slap around the face when a Longbow at full draw literally exploded
Various cuts from knives, digging arrows out of trees [use a marlin spike now, brilliant]
My pride, whenever I miss a blindingly easy target

radsbow - 1/6/2005 8:58 PM

Just did this last Thursday....</p>

...and I'm still trying to fathom out what I did to manage that!!! Plus I broke an arrow that shot out of the bow at a 45 degree angle to my left!!!</p>
</p>



Any news on what caused it yet, Radsbow ??</p>

RE: Newbie: What injuries have you sustained.....


No not really - A senior member at the club seems to think it may have been a weakened / damaged arrow, but I'm not so sure.</p>

The arrow left the bow at a 45 degree angle towards the tennis courts (my left as you face the target)#- and that's where I think the arrow got snapped - on a fence pole.</p>

I shot my first York round today, with no problems, but have to say I'm still concerned by not knowing exactly what may have happened!</p>

All fun and games </p>

Yeah, but even so, thats a pretty dramatic bruise !!!!</p>

It looks more consistent with being hit by a bus than from a freak accident with an arrow, LOL !!!</p>
