Seriously though, hang tough it will all come together eventually!

Dang! I have to admit you had me in stitches.[emoji23][emoji23]you might be jinxed

This is my first season to deer hunt and with a lot of lurking and some help from my buddy I was hoping for a good season. I've sat a few times with no luck but the excitement of going out is enough for it to be worth it. The last two weekends though I've had the worst luck.
Last Saturday night when getting my stuff ready for Sunday morning I opened my bow up to find the string had broken, it needed to be replaced but I was hoping to make it through the season. I ordered a new string and it came in this week. Got it put on this morning so wanted to do some final tuning tonight before the morning and I'll be ****ed if 15 arrows in the d loop snapped, sending my arrow over the neighbors fence.
I know this is a marathon not a race but man I need a break to catch!
Sorry for the long post and thanks for letting me vent.
Exactly why I don't practice in the back yard anymore. I had one break at nearly full draw once. It went over the fence, a vacant lot, and clean over a church before sticking in the church yard. Scared me to death.

Still can't figure out why so many people think it's a good idea to shoot a high powered bow in the backyard in a neighborhood. I'm not usually one to get on high horses but if I had been your neighbor I would have tossed that arrow straight up your rectum and then called the cops. No way in heck I would be ok with someone practicing behind my house especially if I have young kids that play out side. Go somewhere else to practice! You talk about bad luck, think how much bad luck you would have if that arrow hit a kid and you spend the rest of your life in prison thinking about that moment the rest of your life! Think about it.
Oh and there is no back stop or precaution that make this ok. Accidents can and will happen!
Good luck in the hunting it! It took me several yrs as well but was well worth it when I finally connected!

RBP, you sir have some bad luck with that bow!!
We’ve all had bad luck before. Sh it happens...
Shooting a qualifier for Hagerman once my drop away rest broke. If I didn’t make that qual I wouldn’t have another chance for the hunt. Ran to the truck and jury rigged the rest so I could finish. Ran back and finished completely out of breath.
Had my bottom limb hit my knee on release shooting at a Red Stag missing him big time!! Just glad I didn’t wound him...

At times I feel like the Bill Dance of bow hunting.
