bigorange Report post Posted September 12, 2013 My buddy was loading stuff in the truck in the dark and hit an exposed broadhead. Needless to say it ended his hunt pretty quickly and won't be able to shoot for a while. Luckily no tendon or nerve damage and he drew a late archery bull tag so still has some recovery time...be careful out there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ajohunter Report post Posted September 12, 2013 I feel his pain! I sliced my index finger wide open shooting at a buck 15 years ago. Amazing how good duct tape works when soaked in blood! LOL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ylclaret Report post Posted September 12, 2013 Ouch!! I keep a surgical stapler around the house for instances such as these! That must have been one sharp broad head. What kind of broad head was it? Glad to hear that there was no serious damage done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigorange Report post Posted September 12, 2013 Thunderheads with new blades. He was hunting on OTC deer tag, so luckily not out of a major hunt. Should be good to go for late archery elk... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robs523 Report post Posted September 13, 2013 well, I missed turkey 6 times and one small buck before this happened, but I ended sticking something I guess. At least it got me to finally join this website, thanks bigorange! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
