Shawn,
Joe and i wish you a speedy recovery, and are still looking forward to getting together for some chuck hunting when your up to it. Don't be tempted to shoot too soon it could screw you up for a lot longer period. Keep in touch, you'll be fine.

6 weeks seems awful quick.be careful.Most guys I know who have had rotator cuff work have been in a sling for 4-6 weeks and out of shooting for 6 months.Good luck.

Thanks guys, I am amazed by ya all. I have a slight tear in the rotator and the labrum is not good. My daughter had the same surgery and was pretty much back to her old self in two months. I hope you guys are wrong about the healing as my doctor told me I would be back to shooting my 55-60# bows by the Muzzy. I am sticking with 48-52#s when this thing is done. I appreciate all your thoughts. It will be done two weeks from today, so I will be on here a lot until than!! Shawn

Shawn,
All the best for a speedy & rapid recovery. Greg studied sports med. in school. He's saying don't rush the recovery time.

Again,
All best wishes & a few prayers thrown in for good measure too.

Shawn...good luck but trust me, don't rush it. Your shoulder will definately be weaker and you can re-damage it by attempting to shoot too soon.
After this type of surgery, you'll notice that bows in the 48-54# weights will be more than enough. Follow the excerise program religiously and you will SLOWLY regain strength but you will never be 100%.

Hey Shawn,

I know this has been bugging you for ahwile, but I think that getting it done and done right is the proper thing to do.  Good luck and like all have said, don't rush it.......heck, if you can't shoot by Muzzy, you can always be my "arrow caddy"!   :D  

Take care my friend,

God Speed!!! I injured my shoulder a year and a half ago and am just really getting back to the ole stick and string... It was quite a scare...

Contrary to what D.I.s' say about, "pain being weakness leaving the body..." I learned that God gave us pain-to stop us from doing to many dumb things, so if it hurts...don't do it!!!
