dochendrix,
The answer is going to come down to how bad you really want to hunt. Guys with only 1 arm shoot bows all the time ... I shoot with 1 regularly, and he takes deer every year. If you were really serious about archery hunting you can overcome a bad shoulder .. it will take time in terms of learning a new shooting style and maybe even money to adapt your equipment but it can be done. Only you can look inside and see how important archery hunting is and decide if you want to put forth the effort to hunt again.
I'm going out on a limb here and guess you weren't really looking for advice .. but a kick in the ass. Hey .. it really rots your shoulder went on you .. but if hunting with your beloved bow is as important to you as it is to many of us on this board .. well as long as you have a tooth in your head to grab the string and 2 toes on 1 foot to grab your bow ... you can get out in the woods and hunt with a bow!!!!
