BROKE MY SHOULDER

[Panhandle Pete]

No connection, it was as un-glorious as falling off the toilet while taking a crap, being late at night and not paying attention to what i was doing, All my fault.

Bad aim, sounds like you need to invest in a night vision scope!! Speedy recovery. I am currently recovering from a fractured ankle after my high speed Chesapeake Bay Retriever hit me from behind, it took us both down and I am sure she is remorseful!!!

Wont be shooting ANYTHING real soon. Fell and broke my shoulder last night. i dont think the 50 BMG would help my recovery

Best wishes for a speedy recovery! 8 years ago I had radiation therapy in my shoulder for bone cancer and I am so recoil sensitive I'm almost embarrassed!

Sorry to hear this. Follow your physical therapist instructions! Do nothing more or less and things will go well. Wishing you the best.
Blessings,

Sorry that happened to you. Take time coming back as others have said. Do full PT it actually does make it faster coming back. Don't be afraid to ask for help that is my personal biggest struggle. The hunting and outdoor community is made up of lots of great people willing to help. Keep pushing and keep your chin up it will get better.

In 2008 I got injured in Iraq. I spent just over 9 months in the hospital and another 8 months in rehab hospital. Thought I would never be able to do much of anything. I'm still getting better and better its a slow process. I still try to hunt I'm a lot slower then I used to be. I have to have help getting a deer out. I used to hunt 3-4 states every year now its 3-4 days in state but I could careless I'm still trying, and its amazing how much you appreciate things you used to take for granted. I spend hours and hours now reloading, working on rifle projects and going to the range shooting. I still get after them coyotes though. Thank goodness for farm/ranch/summer roads, 4wd's, ATV's and long range rifles (coyotes do not like my 22 Creedmoor at all)

Thank you for you service Sir!!! If you ever get a chance to come to my neck of the country I am sure we could hook you up with a feral hog or two.

Langley couldn't come up with a better cover story than that???
Wifey found the antibiotics from the road trip, huh ??

Couldn't resist. Sorry. Laughter is the best med. Hang in there Bud. Thoughts and prayers are with you.

It sound like from the posts we have a lot of people that need prayers for healing, I will lift you guys up that have posted health concerns.

In black powder shooting one of the stages we shoot is the off-shoulder shoot, supposedly when a mountain man got an arrow in his shootin' shoulder he could use the "week" shoulder and still defend hisself.
A little awkward at first, you seem to concentrate more and amazing how well some are able to shoot 'WEEK SHOULDER"

Build you a 22lr for accuracy like your favorite rig. No recoil and doping range to 300yds will feel like 1000 ! Great for keeping you in the mental game and no concerns for damaging your bum shoulder. Get well soon !

Godspeed recovery, Mate!

Like it has been stated, don't rush and follow up with therapy. I broke my foot and Subsequent surgery plate and screws Dec. 22, 2020 loading up to get to a morning hunt in. Slowly but surely I have gotten up to a mile every other day. Take it slow and recover and you will be back doing what we all like. Blessings

Man that must have been a nasty fall. That's a hard bone to break. Most that I've seen were from vehicle accident. I wish you a speedy recovery sir. Stay strong and stay safe.
