HUGE change thrown at me in mid of season

Last season I broke my hand. Friday night I tore a tendon in my right elbow. Not a terrible tear but enough to have it swell up so that it cant straighten or bend too well. Feels like a hornet sting I guess. Climbing a tree is out.
ANYWAY, like last year I somehow gotta adapt. I started messing with some bows,(a GREAT excuse to own a bunch)....and lo and behold I have a Howatt that is 46# and guess what. Full draw! I only have three arrows matched to it, but I only need one, the others are for good luck.
Going to give it a shot this afternoon, cortisone shot has worn off its initial sting and pressure and I think I'm ready. Some shots most of the day leading up to this afternoon will tell me if I'm ready or not.

Best of luck with it.
Now if all the creaks and pops don't alert the deer as you draw.

Take it easy, Loosing the ability to hunt for life is not worth the rest of one season. Good luck.

The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Sorry to hear about the elbow David. Don't overdo it, but good luck the rest of the season.
I need to look at picking up a bow in the low 40's myself. I'm sure I'll be able to shoot light bows well before I'm able to use my regular bows around 50#. I'm still not sure just how busted-up I am inside from the accident.
Heal well. and fast!
