[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2422903, member: 63925"] +1 on putting off replacement as long as you can. If no choice, respect the limitations, tools to do things easier worth their weight in good bourbon! Three surgeries on rt shoulder, complete "rebuild" in 12/19, all 4 rotator tendons displaced, bicep tendon displaced, bone cyst that contributed to mess, torn labrum, joint cleanout and bone spurs. Other than that, decent shape! I was able to kill one of my bigger bucks 10 days before surgery with Hoyt DoubleXL. Pulling bow back was not enjoyable. It was 17 degrees and after shot, my head was soaking wet from pain sweat. In 11/21 I felt pop in shoulder, went in for MRI, 🤬🤬, evidently surgeon did not remove large calcium deposit that shredded rotator tendon such not repairable.🤬🤬Had surgery in 4/21 to see what could be done. Nothing. Artificial cannot be done due to no support tendons. In constant pain, sleep not really good. Reverse shoulder would destroy everything I want to do. I can still shoot my Hoyt after getting new limbs (kudus to Hoyt CS to help me out!!!) so now at 54lbs. Killed nice buck this year so hanging in there. Eventually xbow but not while I can still draw bow. Getting cortisone deep joint injection next week that is basically now a maintenance program couple times a year. Adhesive heat packs help a lot. No more lifting, use tools, machines etc. PT does help strengthen around shoulder and add stability. Bottom line is protect that shoulder using alternative methods as long as you can. Once you lose percentage of functionality you are fighting to keep doing what you love to do. [/QUOTE]
