Default Forced to miss the 1st week or two

I was all set. I was shooting broadheads very accurately out to 40+ yards, my foodplot got some much needed rain and is coming along nicely, my stands are hung in awesome places with shooting lanes trimmedwith a couple more trees "ready" for when I need them and my leave has been approved for nearly a year. . . until I discovered a lump that shouldn't be there. My Dr. is recommending surgery as is putting me at the head of the line -- this Thursday. Since our bow season opens next Monday, I'll be watching hunting video's instead of taking part . . . for at least a week or two. The Dr. says 2 or 3 weeks, but I don't always follow Dr's orders Of course, this will become much worse if "the lump" isn't what he thinks it is.He says "statistically" it shouldn't be cancer, but I've got a 10% chance. It's in the Lord's hands now.

Do what the Doc says and heal up quick! You waited all summer 2 or 3 more weeks will fly by, and you'll be healthy! Good luck, keep us updated!
