Yea..lol...I have been lucky for the last 7 years since I took up using a release. Why do some of you guys pull your bows back with your fingers to check out the mechanics? Have you ever discovered something wrong by doing this, and what could possibly be wrong with the cams from the last time you shot it and put it in your case

I do it for a few reasons.My fingers rarely fail so I pull it back in the morning to loosen my muscles and make sure my shoulder will work without worrying with nocking an arrow.Plus,make sure the bow is going to perform and not crack or creak or whatever else could go wrong.I don't always do it but I pull my bow back with fingers enough that it is a chance I don't take ANYMORE.
