ok.....i sent him a pm.....thanks guys

I think it's time to see a Doc.Don't want to screw your self up for good.      

clays right...i was shooting upwards of 300 shota a day for over a week str8...i really hope this is just from that.though it did bother me before that it was nothing compared to this.

Papa Bear, it is easy to "over do it" - I shoot a lot as well.  However, if it does not seem to go away.  Get it checked out.  Fix it now BEFORE hunting season.  H

Larry....do we need to call a WHAAAMBULANCE??

Seriously, If I know I'm going to be shooting a bunch I take a couple of Aleve beforehand. You might also look into the Thermacare hand wraps.

I know you aint givin' up that Morrison soon. =0)

How about trying a thumbring then? You'll have to reskill a bit, but the hand position is much more ergonomical and you can quickly attain the same accuracy. Its like a release...just one thats been around for 8000 years  

Papa Bear, Do your fingers feel like they are "stuck" in the bent position, if so you're probably dealing with tendonitis. two days rest is not enough. You probably need to take a couple of weeks off to let it heal completely. I get good results from an ointment called Biofreeze. It hard to find, but a lot of orthpedic, podiatric and chiropractic Drs have it.

DO YOU SHOOT EVERY DAY IF SO TRY EVERY OTHER DAY.YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR BODY TIME TO HEAL.YOU SHOULD GO TO A LOWER LB BOW.USE A RELEASE THERE IS NO SHAME IN THAT.I AM 65 HAVE PAINS IN MY ELBOW BUT I CAN LIVE WITH IT.I SHOOT 49 LBS.I WILL NOT GIVE UP MY SHOOTING OR HUNTING FOR NOTHING OR NOBODY.HUNTING AND SHOOTING HAS BEEN MY WAY OF LIFE FOR TOO MANY YEARS.DO NOT GIVE UP WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO.

Thank about a compression glove. Along with the glucosamine/ condritin, Ibuprophen ect.
I also would limit how many arrows you launch at a time. Maybe limit it to 6 per hour.
