Need Your Excuses

[Kituwa]

And just as i released my arrow my smart phone vibrated with an email that my new bow was at the post office,,,

[cbCrow]

My excuse " man,I just don't know what happened!"

[Stumpkiller]

I had a wardrobe malfunction.

[PaddyMac]

Man, my adrenalin was pumping so hard I overdrew to 72 inches so when I released there was so much force it turned by carbon arrow inside out and would have run him through nock end first if I wasn't just a tad high.

[DGF]

My glove slid down my finger tip and threw off my release.

[Jerry Jeffer]

You mean I was supposed to hit it?

[Lechwe]

I've got a buddy that missed a big buck and his excuse was that I didn't cut a shooting lane for him:)

[smokin joe]

I was shooting to the east of my stand and the Earth's magnetic field attracted my steel broadhead to only hit the earth because the sun rises in the east and throws off the solar gamma rays in the afternoon, and the deer was not magnetic enough to compensate for the spin of the earth or the tide pull of the moon. So I missed.
I am sticking to this...

"I aimed for the duck, but it didn't duck."

[durp]

i knew alluminum arrows were a bad idea...my arrow had to be bent before i shot...ya ota see it now after skiping off that tree that got in the way.

[tuscarawasbowman]

I was trying to kill that tree behind the deer

[joe skipp]

"I wanted to see just how spooky these deer are so I fired a warning shot over his back."

I'm really a member of PETA; just educating all these animals to be afraid of evil hunters.

[Rob W.]

Batteries going dead in my rangefinder.
Should have ate breakfast.
Drank too muck coffee.

I held to long before I released and that sapling grew into the path of my arrow.

It was really cold and I didn't allow for the stiffness of the air.

I forgot I was right handed.

My facemask was crooked and because my view was slanted it threw me off balance.

I forget to put on my glasses before leaving for the woods.

I was testing to see if my efforts to silence my bow were 100% effective.

[Stump73]

Used the wrong pin!

[Shan]

Dude I missed on purpose cause it isn't even squirrel season. I was testing to see if you'd call me on it.

[Shan]

This bow is really shaky

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Here's one I hear all the time.

Forgot to pick a spot!

I once heard a guy who shook his hand while he released and he said,

"I was trying to feed the arrows through the trees"

Needless to say, that loud crack I heard was his arrow....hitting a tree!

[Friend]

The bottom limb hit the stand at release.
