After a several month layoff, 8 weeks of physical therapy treating Tendonitis in my drawing arm, and a Cortisone shot in the second finger of my drawing hand for "Trigger Finger" (the tendon is inflamed to the point that it sticks in the sheath surrounding it, causing the finger to lock up) I've begun to shoot my recurves again.
It's not entirely pain free, but a damnsite better than it was. I can't shoot as many arrows or as often as I like, but it's better than not shooting at all.
The doc advised that if the Trigger Finger doesn't heal completely after a couple more Cortisone shots over the 4 couple months, he'll
fix it with a minor surgical procedure.
I advised that's fine as long as it's after hunting seasons...
