You gotta be kiddin me!
« on: October 27, 2010, 08:09:00 PM »
Well we are entering my favorite time of year in Michigan, pre rut! The bucks are starting to move and I was gettin really excited. But then I went and sprained my shoulder playing hockey!! I can't even begin to pull back my bow!! I can't believe it! I look foreward to this time of year all year and now I'm out of commission for several weeks or maybe a month! AAAUURRGHH!   :knothead:

Sorry for your bad luck. Been sick for 3 weeks and unable to hunt. Might make it this weekend. I'll do my best for you. Man, take a camera out and watch, don't miss everything!

Bill,

Get in to see a Physical Therapist.  At the very least it will help you get better for the future. I've seen some sprains turn out to be rotator cuff tears and other ones turn out to be relatively quick to heal. At least you will be doing something to help it get better rather than just waiting for time to heal you.

Lee,

Feel your pain.  Had knee surgery a week ago and not walking too good.  Not sure how I will do in the woods.  

Hang in there.
