When I was 12 I spent 5 days in a hospital on my back, drugged because of a severe concussion from a direct hit on my eyeball from a blow up. I can tell you from experience ,It sucks. That being said, I use a 1998 model Hoyt and it is well maintained and I have no fears of it. If the bow is checked over and restrung and it should be fine.

If the bow is an XI Velocity, you may want to draw it a few times. They have the weirdest draw of any bow I ever drew back.........
