Good News From The Doctor!
 
Well guys, it's been exactly 3 weeks since the operation on my back and I got great news from the doctor........I'm back in the game!!! Healed really good, no physical therapy needed doc says I'm strong as a bull, but hey we all knew that already.;)I have no problem drawing my bow (come on now this is BigJ we're talking about:D;)) and I'm ready to hit the woods again. I'm even surprised at my recovery but hey you don't get to be the "site bouncer" for nothing, you gotta be tough.:)

Seriously, thanks to all of you folks who wishedand prayed formy quick recovery I appreciate the support and PM's more than you could ever know. I feel great, no pain at all and have been gaining my strength back every day, I really feel good. I can't wait to get back out hunting and I plan on doing so as soon as I get to the range and shoot a little. I'm sure everything will be fine but I want to make sure my form is good, it's been over a month since I shot my bow so I don't want to just hop in a tree without some practice first.

I'm so happy right now, I thought my season was done.....but I'm back! (pun intended;))

John, that is awesome news. I am so happy that things are going well, not just cause you get to hunt, but moreso that you are getting healthy and making a great recovery.

glad to here your back in the game. Might work on some weight lifting to get more muscle so you can get better at pulling youbow back those things are to small man.
I mean dam If i had to fight you i would just hope the bullet would make it through all that muscle.
Glad you back in the game.
I know three guys who had back surgery one can not bend over one can hardly work and another still has pain. Glad it worked out.

Great to see you back on your feet John! After seeing what my dad went through with a similar surgery I'm amazed at your recovery. Granted you were a professional athlete and quite a few years younger, but it is still back surgery.

Get out there and smack a buck so I can throw some congrats your way.

Great to hear, John!!

I was just up a bit north of Alton, Ill., hunting wth Matt and jmbuckhunter this past Thursday, Friday and Saturday and from what we saw you should be hitting the woods at a darn-near perfect time!

I know, can I time it or what?? I actually canceled my hotel reservations for the gun hunt (family property in far southern Illinois) thinking I wouldn't be able to make it, now everything is booked![:@]No biggie, I'll just pistol hunt the second gun season and concentrate on bow hunting.

doc says I'm strong as a bull
Wait, you are a bull. The strength of one shouldn't come as a surprise. LOL Great news and take it slow, don't want to screw something up.

Congrats man, Just in time, the Illinois rut is looking pretty good now. I can't wait to get out and get me a deer this year, my venison supply is DANGEROUSLY LOW!!!
