anyone else attach their bow to their hand-can't lose your bow this way

.....ugh.....that would suck!

I'm a little odd that way, I like my arrow length about 3" past the riser for more than one reason. Speed is everything to some. Maybe he was just checking out somebody elses arrows, ooops!

owey...broken shaft for sure

Most of the pics I see of broken shaft injuries, there are usually a few carbon fibers showing in the wound I think that injury was from a too short of an arrow

This picture first appeared on the internet in 2011. This was the accompanying text.

"This photo was taken on a cell phone last week after the guy took his friend
to Bass Pro Shop to buy his first bow. The clerk was 'assisting' him in
zeroing it in, and, after shooting several arrows, making adjustments
etc., the clerk accidently handed him an arrow that was too short.
When he drew back, the arrow tip fell down onto his hand and he somehow
released it. They rode to the hospital with the bow in his buddy's hand
because it impaled his finger also! They are both archery amateurs (I'm
thinking the clerk is also?). I don't think the guy who got shot ever had
held a bow prior, let alone shoot one...OUCH!
