Hope you're feeling better soon!

You're in our prayers!

get well, my archer pal, mark chambers          

Waiting for an update.  Anybody know how Big J's recovering?  I got to know him a bit this summer, good guy.  Chad

From the other site:

I want to thank you all for your prayers- I will do my best to deserve them.
I just made it home from the hospital last night and am feeling a little rough still. I am happy to report that there may have been more progress made under my wifes tutileage and the kindness of our friends than if I had been here myself.

We our on track to having a great shoot. Hope that everyone that has made plans to come has not changed anything and has told there friends. In case you didn't know, this is a mixed shoot and set up for everyone to have a great time. So if you have friends that are thinking about taking up trad but havn't yet, it would be a great time for them to see how we have a good time.

thanks, Bigjim

Glad to hear that you're doin' better, Jim. I met you at the Ky Klassic this year. You are a very kind person and I enjoyed walking through your tent setup and seeing all the nice bows you had for sale.

I wish you the best.

Good to hear that you are up and at it again Jim. You are a big part of the traditional archery family. Good luck on your recovery.

Jim,  hope you have a speedy recovery Dan

Heal fast!!!

Hey everybody- I want to thank you for all the good words and spiritual help. I am out of the hospital and have been for a couple of days.
My energy level is quite low which anoys me more than any other problem that I'm experiencing.
I was bit by a tick, and ended up with Staff infection.
After an operation and three days of being stuck in the bed, got hammered by a bad case of the Gout (never heard of a good case of gout) which kept me in the hospital until I could stand up.
I am on the mend. Put down the crutches yesterday morning, eating a little better now, and will be good to go in no time.
I have had a tremendous amount of help for our upcoming shoot this weekend. When people found out about my situation, they came out of the woodwork to lend there assistance. They have got everything on track for a spectacular shoot this weekend. If you can make it, you won't regret it.
Unfortunatley, it takes some adversity for one to realize how many friends they realy have.

Again, a BIG THANKS to everyone.
BigJim

Take care and I hope you recover soon and get back at those things you enjoy.

Take Care,  Chad

Glad to hear you're better!
Marco

Get Well Big Jim!
