I have two junk shoulders and a back with L2 and 5 compression fracture/s. Other than Bourbon.... can you help?.lol. Lol hang in there. A lot of the times just keeping it mobile with stretches ect is helpful. I love the doorway stretch for shoulders, and the pitcher stretch-- pulling your arm across your body. Additionally just lying on your back and letting knees fall out to each side improves tissue mobility in the low back without much increase in symptoms. Probably more than you were looking for but I hope it may help! Kenny B and silver & black 2 Quote In my bag: Driver: Ben Hogan GS53 10.5* Stiff Mitsubishi tensei blue Stiff 3 Wood: 939 x 15 deg.

He's about a 6 'cap. Work for TVA? Sequoyah? Never made it down there, but spent a lot of time in Oak Ridge. Sorry for the 2X reply. I just figured out how to use the quote feature.I do work with Sequoyah and have a few acquaintances at the lab. Never got to fly the equipment but flew on a bunch of them to figure out how to fix problems. Loved the pilots - they would supply us with beer on the weekends for keeping them safe in the air!
