[QUOTE="Atchman2, post: 4633421, member: 10762"] I bought a recurve bow to bowfish. The string comes off and whacks me in the hands sometimes. What am I doing wrong? Everything seems to lineup and the string is in the grove. I'm almost scared to pull it all the way back! I've been using my kiddos Genesis bow (in pink of course). :D That seems to work fine, however I decided to get a PSE Kingfisher to have a little more power. Now I'm thinking of going back to the kids bow. The Kingfisher is 45 pounds. Just started the bowfishing thing. The carp are coming up under the trees to eat mayflies. I hit the first three of them, but didn't get one in the boat! Finally I hit one in the head and was able to get it in. Even though the little Genesis bow is probably only 25 pounds, it seems to shoot all the way through them. [/QUOTE]
