Ok maaan you asked for it..read 'em and weep buddy  :bigsmyl:  

She's my first BW...ok

PCH - I think she's a real looker and at 57# @ 28" she's easy to handle too and shoots GREAT.

here's the first shot out of her:
 

 

DO YOU WANT MORE..CAN YOU HANDLE IT BUD....just kidding, but you started it...so here's some more.

Leaning against a tree taking a breather...if you look close she is deep breathing it was the first night with her and she was rode hard and put away wet

 

Here's a pic on my trip through Milwaulkee area at Sherwood forest 3 D range with Rafale and Joe (bowhunting fool)
 

just put together outside her hideout (BW carrying case - they are AWESOME).

 

Me shooting at the Ojibiwa club with Joe

 

her resting in her rack in the Pinzgauer
 

Can you ahndle some more...I have more..Hmm

Seriuosly bud I know what you are going through and I truly sympathize with you. When I screwed my tendons up last fall and I couldn't shoot for four months it was killing me.

Just do the right stuff...get healed and let me know if you need some $$$ too for your surgery...I am a bit flush right now so I can help out ok.

Hope to meet and shoot with you some day. My last trip out to Ontario for the Skills Competition gave me a look into our gang..some mighty fine ppl out there and we really should organize ONE TRADGANG GET TOGETHER.

I think Milwaulkee would be a central place and we could drive RON JOE and ROBB crazy there.

HA HA HA HA

March 4th I underwent massive rotator cuff arthroscopy, subacromial decompression and an open biceps tenodesis.  Shot a 25# bow for the first time last Thursday.  Pain was the least of my problems, immobilization almost drove me nuts though.  Do what the Doc says, but more importantly, do what your physical therapist tells you to.  I'm still doing physical therapy and I think shooting my little recurve helps.  Best wishes.

Cheers for all Jerry.. well done mate, well done! I've love a range like that at home! And that widder is something I've not seen before with the white stripe through it.

Get well soon Al i will be thinking of you brother.

One of the major reasons i order low poundage bows is because i dont want to mess my shoulder up.

I hear a lot of guys saying they wished they wouldn't have shot such heavy bows early on.

Not saying you did that Al but it sure is something to think about.
