I think the story for that picture was that it was they used an arrow that was too short. When the guy drew back it dropped out of the rest, and when he let go, he got his hand pinned to the bow. I think that picture looks worse than the ones where a fractured carbon arrow explodes and goes through your hand, just because of the finger. There's no shortage of pretty gruesome looking archery accidents though.

An archer got killed a couple years back when he abruptly stopped during a stalk. His buddy accidentally ran into him with a nocked broad head.

Just because it's a bow and arrow doesn't make it any less dangerous than a gun.

call me crazy, but does the tension cable/string look loose to anyone else?
could the hand piercing be caused from a snap or derailing?
When you stick'em right, there is no blood trail, only a  puddle.
