Starting my excuses already!!
Well I was just about to drop out, but decided to stay in. Last weekend I got in a little upside down manevour on my 4 wheeler, or for better words...4 wheeler on me. Well, it feels as though I might have slightly dislocated my shoulder....yet once again, nothing new for me.
But I decided I will stay in and tough it out. Getting the first 2 handicapped rounds in will be painfull to say the least, but I will muster through it. In the long run, it will only make my scores better I guess.
But with that being said, if the rule makers deem my handicap far too high about a month in when my shoulder is feeling better, feel free to reduce it. I won't guarentee that it will, but to hold my bow up for 60 shots today would be ugly. At this point I am already going to wait until about a week before the deadline to shoot the 2 scoring rounds.
Is there a time frame that all 60 arrows need to be shot in? I mean is it against the rules to take a few minute break between rounds? I would think if you were shooting in leagues that you would have more than a few minute break here and there. Let me know.
OK, so no I am ready for buckeye to start hacking on me now!! But don't worry, I will be ready for the get together to whoop your butt!!

Just don't get yerself hurt worse than you already are.....Shoulder injuries are hard to come back from....
No, there is no time limit, I don't think......Maybe Rick will chime in....maybe we should set like a 2 hour limit on it, though it would be next to impossible to enforce....Actually, it WOULD be impossible to enforce...

I had my bow arm operated on in '99 for a rotator cuff injury. 4 scars and 7 years later....it's no excuse. It's better than the right arm.
Now THAT's the issue....lol.
I'm gonna maybe shoot my first scratch score, today. This might get ugly!!!
