Glad to hear your up and about. Back surgery can be a rough experience. I had a disc out of my neck two years ago and I was oe sore pup. The only time I notice it now is when i'm hunting and try to twist my head around to see without moving my body. It's a pain but it's still better than having my whole right arm numb all the time which is what prompted the surgery.
I'm headed out tonight to the stand where I had a shooter in at 8 yards during our early doe only season. Maybe he'll stop by again
