Dryfire Warning Prototype

[mikej]

i read about that. was that you scott? that would definately save damage to my phoenix and still allow me to join the dry fire club, but for some reason i don't think don would think its a very good idea.

i haven't dry fired yet but i do use a piece of masking tape on the inside of the limb to remind me to load an arrow after speaking with a forum member about dry fires.

Hey Mike, is there any writing on that tape?

[mikej]

mikej . . .if you want to experience a dry-fire without damaging your own bow, then Boo has been known to allow others to dry fire his Y25.

Hey!!!

[mikej]

after your advise don i also put the white mark on the side for brace height so it makes it easy to know if i need adjustment without measuring

"The best system I've come up with to prevent dry-fires is to make loading the arrow part of the sequence.
Cock bow - flip safety to on - load arrow. "

Exactly what I do after a couple of DFs. I even put a label by the safety in red but still no luck.

After I finally got into the 1-2-3 routine above in rapid sequence I do one more thing - I switch eyes when looking through my scope. When I close my one eye the other views the rail and I can see my vanes and broadhead in an instant and then I switch eyes again. Works for me.
