Deer predator, is recuperating from knee surgery.

I appreciate that Kendall.......I am finding out that the older I get the longer it takes to recoup from these surgeries......Man this stinks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel like a woman sitting in front of the TV and the laptop all day.....Well I guess I did find a replacement whisker biscuit and a new GPS....

LOL...

OH well...I should be up and going by the Poole shoot....


C-Yall there!

What kind of surgery was it Ken? I had my A.C.L. replaced. Man, that was painful! But the best thing I did was to start putting weight on it right away. It's excruciating at first, but the pain got better alot quicker I think.

Good luck with it.

Well Steve, this was the 5th scope on my right knee and I have also had 2 scopes on my Left knee....This last one was to clean up the cartilage (miniscus) and to grind down some of the arthritis...I think the grinding of the bone slows the healing process....Or at least makes it a little more painfull! [:@]... I have had Lateral releases on both of the knees.....It just seems the older I get the harder it is to recover....


I can tell y-all one thing though....I WILL be in a stand come October 1 come hell or high water !!

Get well soon Mike.

Just thinking of knee surgeries makes me queasy.
Something about that fragile joint being messed with gets to me.

Godspeed, my friend

Crap, I'm preachin' to the choir! You're 5 ahead of me. I had the ACL-thing and then a scope. My biggest problem was a clot in my lung the day after the ACL-thing. I had to stay stationary for 2 weeks. Your body can make alot of scar-tissue in 2 weeks, let me tell you. My 2 week rehab took me over 4 months. You should be fine by opening day.

Good luck.
