    Well gang, just giving an update.

    I had my surgery two weeks ago today. Turns out the cancer was more advanced then I initially thought but my outcome is as good as it can get.

    I have no follow up treatment...they got it all. So I'm home recovering until Sept 22nd.

    I'm doing great as I got the piss bag off, and I'm wearing diapers...and I piss myself everytime I sneeze, fart or cough. I did pop a semi chubby in the shower this a.m....so it appears I'll be good to go before the ole lady can say "oooohhhhh lawwwdyyy".

    I recently got a 3d deer target and I set it up this a.m. and shot 28 times. I only had two pins set. one for 10 and one for 20. They were dead on. So I backed up to 30 and set a third pin. It was about 6 inches high, so I used the 20 pin at 30 and it was dead on. So my second pin is on from 20-30.

    I backed up to 40 and lost 2 out of 7 arrows. I have no endurance. SO I'm not sure if it was because I was tired or just that off. From 30 yards in, I kept them all in a killzone group. At 40, I hit the tarket dead bullseye once, the neck once, the front leg once, three over the back, and the last one hit the ground about 5' to the left of the deer.

    I'll give it another throw tomm.
