I agree. After 20 posterior shoulder dislocations (bad BMX bike accident) and 8 years as a butcher, I had/have severe tendinitis in my neck. Ive been shooting every other day for four months now and the pain is almost all gone. Its great to finally sleep again, my head no longer feels like an anvil sitting on top of my neck, and its all because of traditional bows. I dont think compounds would have the same effect.

I hope you have a speedy recovery. Living in such nice country must be nice. Good pic too, caught that arrow just leaving the string.

Cool! Glad you're on the road to recovery.

I have found that archery is also good mental therapy.

God bless,Mudd

I work as a counselor with teenagers committed to the state, all with substance abuse/addiction issues. When I get home from work, shooting my longbows and recurves with concentration, helps all the stress from the day melt away! Good for the soul man!
