<<< Originally I was going to go with a bow but due to rotator cuff  
surgery I can't pull one now.  However I can use a crossbow.  So until  
the 2 years of doing the exercises is over and I have full use of my  
right shoulder I will be using a crossbow. >>>

Perhaps these files in the ARCHERY section of the Florilegium might be  
of use to you or others?
