Crossbow Strings & Thumbs Don't Mix!

[taz3]

I know it's too late now, but the best place to put your front hand when shooting with a rest is under you cheek or just in front of it. This will occupy your free hand and keep it safe.

Glad to hear your ok, take care and here's to a speedy recovery.

Might sound nutty, but post a pic. Someone here posted a nasty looking pic of their thumb accident not long after I join this great forum, and every time I pick up my x-bow I remember that pic and keep my digits clear.

Props to you for posting what happened, its the best way for all newbies to learn and a great reminder for the more experienced guys/gals here.

Tried to add a small pic.(64kb) but only got the message "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached."
But trust me it's a nice wee "smile"

Sorry to hear you whacked your thumb. I hope you heal up quick and get back to shooting soon.
