fasteddie Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Cut the old straps off my back yard tree stand , re-arranged it and put new ratchet straps on . Got in the stand tonight to shoot a few arrows . As I was drawing back on my 6th shot my release slipped , the arrow blooped into the garden somewhere and I smacked myself hard to the bridge of my nose . Cut it open and it bled like heck . Got the bleeding to stop and shot a few more arrows . I must have hit the release prematurely but I usually have my index finger behind the trigger . The nose is a bit tender now . That arrow didn't go far and is in the garden or berry bushes somewhere . That's the hardest I have been hit in the nose since the Marine Corps . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
