Welome to the Gang! Folks like you are an inspiration to us all. After reading this, any excuses I had for poor shooting just went down the toilet. Its great to hear from folks such as yourself. Being a Bluegrass picker i have picked with some great instrumentalists that were missing digits or had hands that were not functional because of accident or arthritis ,and they just left me standing there in awe of there talent. Just goes to show, that if you have a passion for something and a strong will, nothing can stand in your way!

Welcome Joe, I'd like to see you shoot. Like someone else said any of my excuses just went down the tubes! What weights do you shoot?

Welcome aboard, you know after reading about your situation and how you have learned to adapt got me thinking that your method sound like a solid way to beat Target Panic

GreyGoose · June 09, 2012, 01:45:00 AM

Welcome, and WOW!

Keefer · June 09, 2012, 06:52:00 AM

Welcome Joe,
So glad you came back to the stick and string and I too had a fallback somewhat like yours...I severed my right hand in a logsplitter BUT the Good Lord had the Dr's save it and reattached it with 8 pins and 2 operations for nerves...I didn't shoot for several years but started back with a release aid and now I'm shooting like most...I have one question for you "Are you shooting Split tooth Or 3 under?

OBXarcher · June 09, 2012, 07:26:00 AM

Welcome Joe. If you can ever video you shooting I am sure it would benefit others out there.

vintage-bears · June 09, 2012, 09:34:00 AM
