[QUOTE="david g ranes, post: 1948033, member: 20127"] The lower in your neck your problem is the better off you are I had my neck broke in 2004 it was broke at c2 which 90 percent of the time kills you so I am very lucky c1 and c2 is the most flexible joints in your body and I lost 40 percent of that movement side to side some up and down movement I still shoot a lot it isn’t as easy as it once was first thing I’ve had to move my scopes back as far as i can with regular rings then I went to rails now I’m replacing stocks for ones that adjust I can’t shoot prone at all but bench or over a pickup hood I get by fine it can be done you just have to figure out what your work around is shooting doesn’t hurt my neck but it hurts all the time any way so that’s not a biggie just start out shooting a 17 or something light to prove to your self what you can do after being in a halo 93 days most things don’t feel so bad after that but I do feel for you because I’m living it but don’t let it stop you the biggest sadness to me is after 40 years shooting a recurve I had to give it up just start out slow and light and take care.
