....well, the process of decocking the M380 is no big deal for me....or so I thought! Good thing I held the handle very tightly as I pulled the trigger....the next thing I felt was some resistance and something pushing against the top of my boot ...low and behold...I FORGOT TO TAKE THE ARROW OUT before beginning the decocking process. I was able to regroup and apply upward pressure and remove said foot!. One Spit Fire blade was bent but all in all it was a successful extraction!
I guess this day goes down as a very successful hunt even though we saw nary a
deer!

Been there.. my boots now have a patch of silicone covering a perfect "X" where the Slick Trick went in.
Could have got ugly..

My friend did this last year and put a Rage into his boot and barely into his foot before he realized it. My arrows are longer than my stirup so I should be safe. Glad you didn't get hurt real bad

Glad it worked out. I did that with my exomax a few years ago. Fortunately I was able to re-cock the bow as soon as I felt the pressure.
On bows with bolts that don't extend into the stirrup space I think everyone does that once sooner or later. Kinda like the catching your thumb with the string - only did that once and still don't have full feeling in my left thumb.
Never violate a woman, nor harm a child. Do not lie, cheat or steal. These things are for lesser men. Protect the weak against the evil strong. And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the pursuit of evil.
