I have had broke ribs several times and they are fun! Hope you heal fast and can find a way to be comfortable.

Actually you should still be good so do not give up yet. The first two weeks are the worst, but you can get a velcro brace that will ease the pain somewhat. By the end of November, you should be feeling good enough to hunt. Just get on the ground in a blind and get comfortable.

Dang, Hang in there!
You should be good to in a few long weeks.
Prayers sent!

Hope you heal fast. Not being able to get in the woods is a depressing feeling. I have been there.

Pistol, sit in blind. Woods have a healing effect. GWS

I got a small buck and a doe opening week, before I turned my 4 wheeler over into a dry creek bed (the creek bank collapsed under the left rear wheel and in I went, four feet deep, to the rocky creek bed). Luckily, the 4 wheeler landed on something soft.......ME! Both right side wheels landed on large rocks. That left just enough room for me to escape serious injury. I have a severely bruised left hip, a severely bruised left arm with a 3/4" cut on it and at least 2 broken ribs.

For having a 4 wheeler roll and land on top of me, I figure I came out in real good shape!! I still (a week later) hurt like hell in places that I didn't ever know that I had places. However, I'm gonna tough it out and find a way to get back in the woods and chase Bambi around some more. I'm going to hurt no matter what, so I might as well hunt while I'm hurting!!

Here Bambi......... beat this bullet to the corner!!! If you can clear 3300 fps (Hornady 139 grain 7mm Magnum SuPerformance load), you got it made!!

Good advice. It's worth a try. And get well soon!
