A split-second mistake. A missing thumb. A crossbow design that never should have allowed it to happen. In this episode, I sit down with veteran bowhunter Jeff Braaksma, who shares the shocking story of how a simple backyard practice session with his new crossbow turned into a life-altering injury. Jeff's not alone - his experience is part of a disturbing pattern affecting hunters across the country. We dive into the hidden dangers of modern crossbows, the responsibility manufacturers need to take, and what every new or experienced shooter must know before picking one up. If you or someone you know shoots a crossbow-or is thinking about it, this episode could prevent the next accident.
