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.

The lazy do not roast any game,
but the diligent feed on the riches of the hunt.

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.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, with bible in hand and loudly proclaim...WOW...What a Ride!!!

Good Luck, Shawn! And Prayers for a speedy recovery.
Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

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

God Bless Ya Shawn!!! ... Things will go good for you so long as you listen to the doctor ... Hey - If you can't shoot at the Muzzy you can always sell hot dogs or something!!!

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!!!
Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.
