>>My focus was more on his weak shoulder joint, due to a military accident.
He’s got a little better than 50% strength due to that injury.<<
Not very sporting of you. Give him a head start at least!
I am SOOO sorry — but you walked into that! ;)
I think it is great you are helping a Soldier out and you have certainly come to the right forum.
My brother is a bow enthusiast and I’ll ping him in RL and try to get back to you...
At 50% it isn’t going to happen.
It takes a fair amount of strength on a takedown or compound at various points throughout the pull.
Even if he could do it, he is going to pay for doing it. He probably knows what happens if he exerts too much on that arm.
I wouldn’t do it if I didn’t have to.
Heck, I won’t hike, snowboard, kayak, play baseball, tennis, nothing. Not worth the aggravation.
I out a bunch of stuff in storage Sunday and I’m oaying for it today in the front and back of my shoulder. As well, decreased range of movement due to pain.
