A salesman stopped by work today and was telling me about his attempt at his first shot with a wheelie bow. Alcohol may have been a factor. Needless to say, he struggled getting it to full draw, but did, and proceeded to tear his bow arm off on the release. This is the worst case of string burn I have ever seen. He said he did hit the target though. :o

Dang! :o :o I hope he doesn't try to get into Muzzle Loading! ;) ::)

He was good natured and laughed about it, but said he decided archery wasn't his thing. City boys. . . . I tell ya. ::)

I got one like that years back when an arrow broke on release. My bruise began just below my shoulder and ran to my elbow.
Someone ought to teach that guy to bend his bow arm elbow a bit and not try to shoot a bow that's too heavy for him.
-
them wheelie shooters don't bend their arm pat, they have to have this perfect form, that's why it takes'em so long to take a shot
-
last time I saw a bruise that bad was a girl in college! Not saying anything at all against you you fine girls and ladies here on PA mind you.
-
That a'int bad ::). I had one that looked like a soft ball on my forearm.
-
He no for archery.
-
Hey... check this out... this is what happens if you shoot a warbow and you don't listen.
Sorry to hijack your thread!
-
That is the worst purple nurple I've ever seen adb.
That guys arm looks like he broke a blood vessel or something to get that kind of a bruise.
-
Hey man... don't worry... that ain't my nurp! But it was my warbow. I almost wet myself watching the guy jump around doin' the pain dance. 'My nipples gone, my nipples gone... I can't feel my nipple!... it burns, it burns... oooh it burns!" Bwaa-ha-ha!!!!
-
I talked a kid at work into letting a big stag beetle clamp down on his nipple with its pinchers for 50 cents. Best half dollar I've ever spent ;D
Greg, why don't you make that guy an arm guard and introduce him to a "safer" side of archery.
-
That's why the Vikings wore brass bras!

OO, this guy has no interest at all in archery or hunting either. He was just drinking with his friends and one of their sons was shooting a bow. He shot it on a dare. He said he had a baseball size knot pop up on his fore arm. I would gladly show him how to shoot a "real bow." adb, that guy dang near tore it off, looks like. Bet that was funny!! >:D
-
Ouch,that had to hurt when the feeling came back. :) Miss Joanie done the same thing,it was with a stick bow but that ended her archery. :o :) :)

Yah... it was funny, but not funny. I felt bad for the guy after I stopped throwing up from laughing so hard! Watching him dance around on his tippy-toes rubbin' his nurp... I couldn't help it. 8)
-
Bet he's glad he wasn't wearing a nip ring like one of my buddies :ohe was almost crying when it tore out.
-
Nasty, nasty, nasty Greg! Back in the early/mid 80's I hade a Martin with the old tear drop connections on the cables ends. One broke and my arm looked dang close to that after a few days.
-
My wife was practicing tree stand shooting back in the 90's from the shop roof. Her breast got in the way and it turned the whole thing black with a hint of blue. When I saw it I near cried. Sorry no pic. >:D That was in her wheelie days them things will hurt you but she still shoots today.
-
That cracked me up, Adam. That description had me visualizing the event. My wife asked me what I was laughing about. ;D
