I agree with the above. I suffered through tendonitis as a junior in my bow shoulder and shot through it by using heavy pain killers. (I wanted to compete). After I qquit for a numer of years I continued to damage the shoulder playing US football. When I returned to archery the pain was quite severe (7 years later) and in the end had to take 6 weeks off while I did physio and fix the tendon. Since then thanks to that and restructuring my technique I had had few issues with it.
I dread to think where I would be today without getting that work done and taking the time to get it to heal.
BTW I am a compounder.
