I'm just wondering if anyone elsehere puts their bowhunting ability in jeopardy. We all put ourselves at risk driving to work oreven taking a shower everyday.I'm talking about extracurricular activities that may pose a risk to your health that ultimately would affect your ability to bowhunt.

For example; I bought a motorcycle a few months back. I'm thankful to get back home safely everyday that I ride. However, I did lay it down a few weeks back avoiding some gravels in a curve going about 55MPH. Anyway, my helmet, jeans, and riding jacket did a great job of keeping me on this earth just a little bit longer. No serious injuries; I got some road rash on my left knee, right forearm, and sprained my left shoulder. I was finally able to pull my bow back last night for the first time in a few weeks. I'm a righty but the pressure on my left shoulder was too great to withstand holding that bow back at full draw.

About 6 months ago I sprained my wrist in a snowboarding accident. I let some friends talk me into going and I landed on my right wrist pretty hard. I vowed to never try that again.

I'm also thinking about selling the bike. Too many close calls for me and none of them seem to be my fault. [:@]

I've been thinking about walking around in a plastic bubble until archery season begins.

So...do you guys do anything that puts you at a higher risk for injury?
