The come back trail.........

Big day today......after my knee replacement and extended hospital stay, my wife got me down in the side yard on my range to shoot my bow. Shot my new to me Bear T/D "B mag" with #3 limbs. Pretty cool for a 40 year old bow. Only shot for 15 minutes and I was tuckered. Boy it felt good. The come back trail is a rugged one but I know it will be conquered.

Had friends who said they wished they had done it 10 yrs earlier, but one friend rushed the recovery and got infected, the taken out an another to replace first one, soooo follow recovery plan exactly. Glad you had the bow back in your hands.
