My son tore his ACL…
Just saw this post, but sports/ortho PT here that has a lot of ACL recovery experience. They likely are limiting flexion to give the meniscus time to heal up. As was stated previously, premature return to sport is the highest indicator for reinjury. If his PT is trying to get him back earlier or...- Coop

Weekend Libations
Got lucky a couple weeks ago. This will be saved for a very special occasion. Over the weekend, some Weller FP did the trick.- Coop

September's Come and Gone
I assume the WSF banquet. We were both there. One of the best guys I know. I'm lucky to call him one of my best buds.- Coop

September's Come and Gone
The rest of September found us in elk nearly every time out and, unfortunately, my wife would miss a bull at 40 yards a week later. This was a clean miss, by over a foot, and her report of the shot was "I don't remember giving my release permission to release my arrow." We've all had elk fever...- Coop

September's Come and Gone
I returned home from the UL's at 2am on Tuesday the 16th. After a day of catching up on sleep and a day of unpacking, my legs finally felt good enough to go for a walk and chase elk solo on the 18th. The morning found me one step behind the elk until about noon, when I finally put two bulls to...- Coop

September's Come and Gone
Archery elk in MT began on the 6th of September. This was four days before I had to leave for the sheep hunt. I went into this archery season with the primary goal of getting my wife her first elk. While we still have yet to accomplish this goal, the amount of knowledge and experience that we...- Coop

September's Come and Gone
To begin, I'm not much for words and storytelling, so I'll keep this fairly short and sweet. This September was one for the books. Not necessarily from a critter harvest standpoint, but from an experience standpoint. While hunting season here in MT is far from over, I hope you all enjoy what...- Coop

I thought that first cub was drawing his bow back. I've been seeing too many AI generated pictures on my feed. Cool capture.- Coop

2025 spring bear thread
9 bears so far this year, but none worth pulling the trigger on. This small boar had a beautiful coat and was fun to watch. The sow and her three cubs was great to see as well. I know them from hunting the same area last year, and it's great to see that she was able to keep all three alive!- Coop

Great Social Media posts?
If my grand pappy went hunting in blue jeans and a flannel, what did his wear?- Coop

Tennis elbow anyone?
PT here (insert bias). A lot of research coming out actually shows that insertion of a needle and no injection has the same benefits as injecting cortisone. Dry Needling is something I have a lot of success with in the clinic, especially with tendon injuries and overuse injuries like this, when...
