Dropped my bow also. My pull cord came undone just as I got the bow to the base of my stand. Only the thing it did was crack my quiver hood. My other mishap came while pulling my bow up also. Made my way into an acorn flat before daylight one morning. Climbed up in my loc-on, got everything situated and started pulling my bow up. Got it almost to the base of the stand and it hung on something. I tried to ease it back down but it wouldn't come loose. Not wanting to come out of the stand, I pulled and tried to reach the cam with my hand. As I did, I heard a pop and it came loose. A limb had gotten wedged between the cam and the idler wheel. The pop I heard was the string when it rolled off the idler. Ruined the morning hunt and I had to make an hour drive back home for a 5 second repair
