Fellas,
Has anyone had labrum repair surgery?
I would like to know about your recovery and how long it took to get back to bowhunting.
Personally I'm on day 4 post surgery...

Re: Labrum Repair Surgery
Not sure, just looked up what labarum was. Looks like it could be a bit. What does the doc. Say? I had my bicep reattachment done. Aug. 4th. The rehab guy just put me on 2lb. Weights. Ugh..... I have been doing some other stuff as well, may have pushed it a little to hard this week. I can do pushups against a counter top, don't use bicep much for that. But Will probably still use an xbow all season. I probably won't get out for 2-3,weeks yet. Kind of a slow recovery, but they seem to be conservative with reattachments. Not sure on a tear. Happy recovery.

I'd say look to get an xbow for the rut. I think I had mine in August and was good by end of October.

Re: Labrum Repair Surgery
I had SLAP labrum repair on July 3rd, 2012. I went through extensive rehab, and bow hunted that fall with no problems.... but I turned my bow from 73 lbs down to 55lbs. Drawing on cold mornings was pretty tough... real sore, and tight. also, using a hand climber was tough.... but I was able to hunt.

Re: Labrum Repair Surgery
I have a partial labrum tear. Should still works but if I over do it shooting or working out it flares up. No surgery yet.

Re: Labrum Repair Surgery
A friend had it done last spring and he just in the last week bought a bow. Not to be a downer but he said the rehab was painful and slow, but he is in much better spirits now. He is shooting an elite at #56 lbs. You are certainly not going to be shooting a bow this season, but should be set for next spring and summer practice. Hang in there.

Re: Labrum Repair Surgery
Use a crossbow this season. You're way too early even in November. It is not worth tearing up your shoulder forever or having to do the surgery over again. You will have a follow up soon with the surgeon or PA, ask for a post-op protocol and ask about bow hunting. They will tell you. A labrum repair is a big deal. Do things right if you want to bow hunt long term. Find a good PT.

Re: Labrum Repair Surgery
I had a torn labrum and a lot of scar tissue from an old healed, not fixed right tear, I had mine done in May 2010 and bowhunted that same year in October, Once I finished my rehab, due to my insurance I had a set number of visits remaining and talked the rehab lady into building my bow draw specific muscles back into shape and I was fine at 56 lbs.

Re: Labrum Repair Surgery
