Return of the "old guy"
« on: February 05, 2012, 12:24:00 PM »
Well, gang, I've returned to TradGang after an hiatus of several years, but the final chapter's happening this coming Friday, when the left foot gets completely rebuilt-finally.  The arch in my left foot totally collapsed about two years ago, and after working through a bunch of custom orthotics, flexibility exercises and so forth, having the problem surgically repaired is the only good option.  It's really impacted my being able to get out into the woods, but that's gonna change.  

So, a renewed "hi" to all of you!  In a few months, I should be able to begin learning to walk properly again, and will be back shooting-with a new Bear Kodiak!

And by the way, if some of you other hunters haven't seen a new magazine called "Cooking Wild", get hold of a copy!  Plenty of elk recipes, including a Wellington in the Fall issue!  Well worth the price of admission!!

Good luck with your surgery and rehab.  Sounds like you'll be in the woods this fall.

Welcome back. You know that may slow you down.   But slowing down to hunt is the essence of traditional. Good on ya!

I hear this a bunch about shoulder issues.  Mine flairs up every once in a while if I over use or abuse it.  I hope you mend up and can get back to it soon.  Take it slow and easy.
