fentinger, if taking a thread topic out of context were to become a sport, you would be an Olympic gold medalist.  Might wanna consider letting off the testosterone overdrive button a little.  

I am sure that you are a mountain of a man with a physique that looks like it was chiseled out of granite and you probably eat raw meat and motor oil for breakfast and we are all in utter amazement of your awesomeness, but keep in mind that most of us are not in 6th grade and the girly jokes and the "I am more of a man than you are" remarks only make you look like a fool.

CIC, gently here, did you read ALL the posts? Did you comprehend them? From your post I doubt it.

Obviously Saul Alinsky is the new poster kid for debate style?

Grow up never! Kids have dreams! Adults have excuses or worse yet lawyers for their failings.

Will continue with help from Sisyphe to acheive my goals on my terms, my choices. Failure does not come from attempting to acheive something and not reaching the goal. Effort alone is sucess.

 Maybe original poster was looking for help/encouragement and not an excuse to give up trying to be where he was before.

Hey, Fentiger, you haven't made many posts here. So far, all I've seen you contribute are snarky, childish remarks.

The folks here are a great bunch of guys who will always be here to help people. But you're already on your way to alienating people here through uncalled for sarcastic remarks and self-aggrandizing backpatting of a nature that impresses no one.

So, here's some advice for you, since you're so into telling others what to do: Put a sock in it already. We are not impressed.  "[dntthnk]"

Fentiger, one way = intellectual constipation?  Coming from a "guy" with diarhea of the mouth, your opinions and remarks don't hold much water.  Why don't you go join over at archerytalk.com where you can beat your chest and run your mouth with more of your own kind.

Interesting way of helping folks is to encourage them to accept less? Ring a bell with the state of the nation?

The original poster wanted? to get back to where he was. HIS choice.

But no as usual he was encouraged by some to accept less because it is all he needs.

 Guess I had better quit while I am still clearly behind.

 Tsalagi, thank you for leaving no doubt.

He was asking if his experience after a layoff due to injury and surgery was normal.  The advice given was to start out with a light weight bow and work his way back up.  

Not pulling every single pound that your are able to pull by mustering every bit of strength you have doesn't mean somebody is "accepting less."

Have a good day fentiger.  I'm gonna go outside and shoot my girly bow.  :biglaugh:

Surprised your up in weight this soon after surgery.  What does your doctor say?

I had neck surgery 4 weeks ago and the dr. just let me start shooting light bows again.  He highly recommends that I don't shoot over 50# ever again.  I'm going to listen.
