So I am going in for rotator cuff surgery in the AM and my left arm will be immobile for at least 2 weeks. Any suggestions on how to shoot one handed?

I just hope to not take that much time off from shooting. Doc Klepper in the USA

At least all is not lost. The surgeon told me he is sending me home with 10 days supply of oxycontin so I may not have to worry about it until that time is past. Doc Klepper in the USA
