I picked up a couple of new bows last week and have been doing some shooting. Nothing over the top just about 30 arrows yesterday and another 10 this morning. The left elbow is starting to feel a slight dull ache. What do you guys do if/when it happens to you?
making push ups and stretching
Get you one of those grip strengtheners. It is one of those spring devices that you squeeze with your hand. It also helps strengthen your fore arm and elbow area. Had elbow problems and it has helped a great deal , also will help with your shooting.
Could be tendonitis. Go see the doctor immediately. I have had issues with it for a number of years including physical therapy and steroid injections. I still have to rest them from time to time, sometimes for a couple of weeks at a time.
ermont,
Is it tennis elbow or golfers elbow?
PM me, I have something for you.

Dull ache after only 30 arrows is not good. Could be tendonitis or could be a bone spur which is more serious and you need to see an orthopaedic surgeon for that to have it removed. I had one so I know.
I wonder if it's from to much hand shock.
I had alot elbow pain, an everlasting dull pain. Too much hammer and chisel I guess anyway I used fish oil and it helped a lot.
