I was thinking on you today, glad it all worked out.  Hopefully we all can find the time to shoot together again when you're healed.  I had a heck'uva good time last Sunday.

Take care and follow the doctor's orders amigo!! I'll have a couple of cocktails in your honor tonight........

Shawn,

It's great to hear that your surgery went well.  By following what the doctor and therapist says, to the letter, you will be back to normal, well at least physically, in no time at all!

Take it slow and easy Shawn. We will miss your advice.

I'm Glad to hear your surgery went so well.  I had rotator cuff surgery in 2004.  I had two large spurs removed.  The doctor told me he didn't know how I was able to lift my arm as well as I could because one of the spurs had cut almost through one of the muscles.  The 2nd night I was home I had just found a comfortable way to fall asleep up against the headboard.  I had just about reached REM state when I thought I felt something  RIP MY ARM OFF AT THE SHOULDER!!!   The cat had climbed out from behind the headboard and used my shoulder as a springboard.  I wasn't quite sure if I could reach the cute little kitty to  CRUSH IT'S HEAD IN MY GOOD HAND , because the pain he caused me almost made me stain the bed!
Anyway the doctor had told me not to shoot my bow for 4 months.  This was in August, by October I killed a doe with a 70# recurve.  I worked hard to recover from my surgery and it paid off.
Good luck, follow your doctors advice, feel better.  Don't push it as hard as I did, I got lucky, I could have really torn up my shoulder badly. Hind sight is 20/20.

Thanks guys, i was lucky to only have feathering on my rotator and some tendons. my wife reminded me they did remove a big bone chip from my labrum as well, it was wedged into the soft tissue and that was causing me alot of the discomfort i had. by the way i will still give my advice, just not as quickly!! Shawn
