You didn't hurt your bow at all. The minimum arrow weights are for prolonged shooting. You still had plenty of weight on your string to soak up the energy. And if you have limb savers and a stabilizer it would be even better yet. I would not suggest shooting an arrow this light all the time, but every now and then will not do anything dentrimental to it. I think this is mistake most of us have made. At least those of us that shoot a lot and like to tinker with things.

I cut my harness once and my bow exploded at full draw. It has also been dry fired twice by accident. No damage at all. I took the bow into the shop and had them go competely through it, they found nothing wrong. I do however have a lot of simms products on my bow, and I shoot a short draw length and low poundage.

Your bow should be fine.

You will be fine, i had just bought a blackmax 2 at the beging of the year and i was practicing drawing from a seated position and of course like an a-hole i hit my release button with out an arrow knocked, but she held up great.

Never hook a release to a bow and draw it without an arrow in it. take it from someone who has learned the hard way. If you want to draw a bow with no arrow, do it with your hands. If you don't think you can do it with out letting go of it, then you are drawing to much weight. You should be able to draw and let down your bow with it out in front you.
