Went to neuro surgeon today for post surgery follow up. Says everything looks good, but no shooting til April or May. Also no heavy lifting for the rest of my life. Can't pull a bow yet, didn't ask him about that, just tried and I am a ways off. Guess I will have to shoot .22's, not quite as much fun. Gonna have to see if I can find another way to make a living. (on top of SS that is)

As tough as it is, follow docs orders
I would think there are plenty of low recoil options
.243 with managed recoil ammo would be a thought
Hope you make a speedy recovery
Removed T7 vertebrae, and a large potion of the T8 vertebrae. Added hardware to stabilize. Already had rods and screws from surgery 3 yrs ago. Metastasized tumor was reason for surgery. Still on 10lb lifting restrictions. Surgery was 10-16. Hate to gripe when I am doing so well on recovery.

Glad you are not suffering paralysis and hope you get to the point you can shoot what you want to
