Last year, I got my bow too late i the season to do any hunting. SO I shot some, and parked it for the year. <\/p>\n
I was in pretty poor shape then, and that was quite a few pounds ago. I had problems drawing the bow at the factory setting (65#) but I knew I had to work on that. I chjanged the weight setting, and put it away. <\/p>\n
In the interim, I’ve lost quite a bit of weight, and spent a lot of time working on the road in factories, much less in offices. So there have been plenty of opportunities to work, though I have done almost no lifting of weights. <\/p>\n
So I pull the bow tonight out of it’s case. And draw it. <\/p>\n
And I let it back, carefully, and think, “I adjusted this down”. I looked. I ddint’. I adjusted it up, to about 90#. And I can draw it and hold it for ages, it feels like I’m pulling on a rubberband slingshot. <\/p>\n
It’s wonderful to see things come together like this. And since I’m hungrier now, maybe I’ll be a better hunter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
