garden gun Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 You have my sympathy and understanding. I am in a similar boat with two torn Achilles tendons, balance totally shot (pardon the pun) waiting on a date to habve the left reconstructed (followed by the right some time later). In the meantime no shotty shooting or fly fishing - have to content myself with knocking off squirrels and magpies with the air rifle.
