bow hunting at Bass Pro shop

[fun w son]

With hunting season just having started, there are some amateurs out there that don't know what they are really doing. Keep an eye on folks around you.

This photo was taken on a cell phone last week after the guy took his friend
to Bass Pro Shop to buy his first bow. The clerk was 'assisting' him in
zeroing it in, and, after shooting several arrows, making adjustments
etc., the clerk accidently handed him an arrow that was too short.
When he drew back, the arrow tip fell down onto his hand and he somehow
released it. They rode to the hospital with the bow in his buddy's hand
because it impaled his finger also! They are both archery amateurs (I'm
thinking the clerk is also?). I don't think the guy who got shot ever had
held a bow prior, let alone shoot one...OUCH!

I used to hunt with an 'overdraw' bow setup but I never became comfortable with a broadhead sitting 6" behind my left hand ready to launch...

How does a stuffed pig bleed? I posted that picture last week and after I looked at a few times I wondered the same thing. The only thing the fletching looks its real.
