Great video Brady. They should make this an orientation video before joining BFC. I may have to give it a try if I ever start shooting spinners again.
 
On the shooting without pressing button, I always have about a foot of line hanging off the end of the bow so it can't get to tight to pop out like you deminstrated. Have you ever tried with #400 lbs to see if it breaks? I appreciate your videos.

DONT do it,it wont break.
Dont tie to the back with anything over 200 lb
 
I am surprised 200lbs breaks
Since the videos were done with Fast Flight, it's understood that you're referring to 200lb Fast Flight. BUT, I would hate for somebody to find a spool of 200lb dacron at the pro shop and tie to the back thinking that it will break because it WON'T. All 200lb test lines are not created equal. The dacron can be found in many pretty colors, so please don't confuse it with Brownell's small diameter Fast Flight because they are two entirely different lines. Here's the dacron:

BTW, awesome videos!!! :tu:
 
So what would happen if you tied to the back using a retriever.. but added a couple foot of FF to the end of the dacor line? Would it work??
You might be on to something, only problem might be if the dacron still has enough stretch to act like a bungee cord and keep the FF from breaking.
