Fellow Archer's
  Thanks's for the kind word's of encourgement.Last June was my first shot after the accident,and Im still learning to cope with all the problems.
 To answer some questions, I tried a mouth tab,shooting a self bow and chipped a tooth.
 I met Tim farmer he came to the hospitle to see me,as of request from my best friend.
 Family and friends and everyones prayer's has helped alot.
 I was a member of the KTBA when I lost my arm,and I am still a member.
 Theirs alot of fine people in the Traditional Archery family and I have made many friend's threw it.
  Killdeer... yes I would be heart broke if I quit....I have enjoyed archery all my life.
  I gess I just needed some thought's from people that dont really know me.
  Thank's again everyone.
   R.H.

RH:
I have a friend locally that lost his right arm at the shoulder in a logging accident. he shoots recurves pulling the bow via a tab on the string with his teeth, and does quite well, usually taking several deer and a elk each year. I also lost a friend last year that shot the same way, there was a write up in TBM about him. In fact he earned a merit badge in the boy Scouts climbing a rope using only one arm.
Keep it up you can do it, all it takes is desire and determination.
