    I am working a RV, boat, fishing and hunting show for a store that sells our products this weekend. Last night two mid twenties women walk in and want to see if they can pull one of the bows back they were selling. One of the younger guys walks over and starts cranking the poundage down for one of them. I am shaking my head and cant believe what I am seeing. The owner walks over and I figure he is going to give him ****, well I was wrong he just starts bsing with them too. She finally pulls it back and you can guess dry fires the bow. I am just sitting there shaking my head thinking WTF did you two dumb @$$es think was going to happen. Sometimes you just cant fix stupid!

    The first two things my husband taught me about guns and bows -

    A gun is ALWAYS loaded, and

    You NEVER dry fire a bow.

    That's why every bow shop I have ever been to has a wrist release that doesn't open for people to try and pull back a bow. I'm surprised that they didn't have one.

    Yeah were they hot? That goes a long way to getting guys to be stupid. The hotter a chick the dumber a guy can get.

    The woman destroys a bow a guy risked his job and no release? Typical.

    Are you in Iowa? Because if you are in Iowa if a woman isn't over 150 pounds they add 3 more points to their hotness total.:nana:
