Shoulder Woe's

I dislocated my right shoulder twice kayaking and had a tree limb fall and break up some things in the same shoulder, had to stop shooting a compound. Bought a Excalibur. I don't like how bulky a crossbow is how hard to sneak through the woods with but the raw power can't be beat and they don't hurt my shoulder

Nice bow. Tell me about it. Riser wood limb core who built it
Fox Triple Crown, 68" long, 45#@30". Micarta, Rosewood. Carbon limbs with bamboo cores and back, walnut overlays on the limbs. This was a bucketlist longbow, been drooling over them for 8 years. Finally found a used one that I could afford last year....

I have a frozen clavicle. It is frozen at the sternum, which does not allow my shoulder to rotate as it should. The entire shoulder girdle on my right side is tight. I have managed to deal with the pain for years, deep tissue massages, physical therapy, etc., but now I can hardly even draw my bow.

I cannot decide if I want to sell my bow and buy a crossbow, or if I want to just give up on archery season and wait until muzzle loader season. I hate to hunt when it is 80° or hotter, and I hate mosquito's.

Getting older sux!!
Right there with you and facing the same situation but can't take the kick of a muzzleloader. Surgery is a coming in Jan but I want to make it through the season since I paid my lease dues! Good luck
