Welcome to the club. Not a nice feeling. Not only have I done that but had rope cocker around my neck and unknowingly one end of rope cocker got around the string. Fired and all I could feel is massive pain. Bet blood squirting out of finger two feet. Broke the plastic handle of rope cocker on my hand. Get horified when I see people put them around there neck now. LOL

Well, I had been target shooting with the rope cocker around my neck but that won't happen again after reading this. I already joined the P.A.D. Club last week and I'd rather not earn my membership in another club due to a rope cocker mishap. :shock:
