    Nobody asks to shoot my bow. Any of my friends who would want to shoot a bow already have one.

    But, I would rather I was the only person shooting it.

    NOPE! Not at all!!!!! My Bow is like my motorcycle and woman(if I had one) lol... No body gets to play with my toys. Yep Selfish!!
    But no if they want they can get one and mess it up and not worry about me turning them upside down to shake out there pockets to replace mine.

    My dad, brother in law, and the guys I shoot with can shoot my bows any time they want. Doesn't bother me in the least bit.

    Yeah, I let people shoot mine... My friends are responsible though, and would pay for it if anything happens...

    No I haven't but would let an experienced "stringpuller" have a go at it. My Omen cams are agressive so I'd be super nervous :)

    When my friends shoot my bow, I make sure they're the friends with money. None of my poor friends will shoot mine
