John, if only the people who turnout for the political football game of gun control would turn out to address mental health issues we might make some progress. My humble opinion. Dwc

Ps. Wose, Krista Holbrook’s column in the latest magazine is indirectly about this sort of thing and the ramifications. Beat, dwc

Wose, that’s what elevates this site. Winning with a cheat is still winning so much of the time. It’s pervasive. Thanks. D

I heard of something like this and of course know we get chestnuts in season in the market. I think there has also been a seach for survivors to see if there any resistant survivors. Great project you did. Stewardship of your land. I wish a speedy crop for you. D

You guys know your trees. We have a few chestnuts here. They grow for a couple of decades then the blight sets in. What sort of chestnut did you put in?

Steve, good story for us. Sorry you lost that deer. We have coyotes here now more than ever. This is a good tale to keep in mind. Thank you, dwc

Ps. I like that fishing arrow idea. Wear your rollerblades and you’re off!

Hey Wose, congratulations on a great shot on that doe. It worked well for you to say the least. I went heavy and high foc due to the fact that I’m still quite new to this and wanted to have as much advantage as possible. Good luck on building you arrow for elk. Keep us posted. Best, dwc

Steve, Thanks for taking time to respond. It’s an intermittent problem and the odd this is it seems to have increased as I am paying a lot more attention to my back tension. I suppose I could blame this on you, since you started this thread :D, but I take full responsibility for my awkwardness with the bow.

I do hook the string in the first joint of all three fingers, shooting split finger style. I can tell that the string sometimes starts to slip forward in my ring finger, causing the compression on the tip of the finger. I supposed I need to keep a stronger hook, yet relaxed hand. I do like the idea of applying pressure with the ring finger and first finger before the second finger comes into play. I’ll have to give that a shot.

It’s a journey and I love it. Thanks for your help! best, david

I know this has been covered, but a quick search didn’t lead me to it.

The question is about the ring finger on my string hand. That’s the finger that gets sore if any of them do. It seems like the flesh in the finger rolls under the string sometimes. Most of the time, there’s no problem, but sometimes that last section of the ring finger gets sore or even a little numb. Seems like it had to do with where the elbow was positioned, as in too low and the ring finger hurts. Any thoughts? thank you, dwc
