I can relate to your situation.This past Feb,I also had surgery done on my left shoulder.It wasn' t the rotator-cuff though I had a hook growing on the bone.More severe than a bone spur.Anyway today Ihad the bow shop increase the poundage for me.Last week was the first time that i shot it since the surgery.man it felt good to hit the " X" again.What i would recommend is to let time heal it.One wrong move and your back to square one.
