Shoulder pain, draw weight, bow setup, injury prevention, and confidence. How much does your physical health actually affect your performance as a bowhunter?On this episode of Flippin' Sticks & Throwin' Lead, we sit down with Dr. Joe Ogden, a physical therapist who specializes in working with hunters and archers to prevent shoulder injuries, recover from pain, and stay behind the bow for years to come.We get into the connection between shoulder health and archery performance, why preparing your body before hunting season matters, and how strength, mobility, technique, and equipment setup all play a role.We also dig into the trend toward heavier draw weights, how bow design and draw length can affect stress on the shoulder, what Dr. Joe looks for when assessing an archer, and why simply being able to pull a certain poundage doesn't necessarily mean it's the right setup for you.But this conversation goes beyond injury prevention. We talk about target panic, control, consistent practice, and why confidence in yourself and your equipment can have such a massive impact when it's finally time to draw back on an animal.Whether you're currently dealing with shoulder pain, trying to prevent an injury, or simply want to become a stronger and more confident bowhunter, this episode is packed with information you can actually use.Topics include:Shoulder health for bowhunters and archersBowhunting injury preventionDraw weight and shoulder stressDraw length and proper bow setupStrength and mobility for archeryPreparing your body for hunting seasonShoulder pain and rehabilitationTarget panic and shot controlBuilding confidence as a bowhunterLong-term archery and shoulder healthGet in touch with Dr Joe here:Instagram: @joeogdendptWebsite: www.committedphysicaltherapy.comEmail: [email protected]' Sticks & Throwin' Lead
