Default Got my Walking Papers. Back hunting

I got the ok to get rid of my walking boot. As some might remember I broke my leg on Oct 23rd while bow hunting. I had 3 weeks of vacation planned for the end of Oct and Nov. Here is my x-Ray 2 weeks after surgery. 12 screws and 2 metal plates.[:@]


Well today I was told I could go back to walking WITHOUT the walking boot. I even asked if I could go bowhunting this weekend and she gave me the thumbs up. All has healed well and I couldn't be happier. It is just like opening weekend. I won't be getting out much because the season ends Jan 3rd. I will be out Fri, Sat and Sun. Just gald to be getting back to the woods.

Glad to hear you're back on your feet and out in the woods. Now go get a nice buck and show that son of yours how it's really done.

Nice pictures. Maybe I should try and scan my heart pictures and show you the before and after the surgery.
