Just had my bow get dry fired. Limbs aren't cracked and every thing seems to be fine but the string has come off the cams. Should I expect there to be more damage or is this pretty typical?

Never....I got it drilled in my head to never draw a bow without an arrow from an early, early age.Comment

I did it once. I had accidentally tapped my release trigger at a fractional draw. The arrow just plopped in front of me. Then I proceeded to pull to full draw and fired. Eek! In my mind, the slip fire didn't send an arrow down the range, so therefore I still had an arrow. Wrong!!
I had my bow checked out and was absolutely fine. However, I was only pulling 30lb at the time.
Hope you have the same good fortune.Comment
