I drive a truck for a delievery service in owensboro KY. Yesterday all that driving caught up to me. At a very busy intersection, the stop lights were out in all 4 directions. The lights facing me were flashing red, but what I didn't know was that the lights on the north/south road were flashing yellow. Everyone at the intersection was treating it as a 4-way stop. After letting everyone before me pass, I proceeded across the intersection. Well, a woman in a mini-van came speeding down the street doing at least 45mph. By the time I hit my brakes there was nothing I could do. I t-boned her in the side and that was that. She and her child were fine, but I can't say the same for myself. I have pinched a nerve in my back that is giving me some strong pain, and I am very stiff this morning. I am very concerned with gun season coming in tommrow that i am not going to feel like going. But hopefully a day and a half of rest will do the trick, and I will be out there in the morning. I don't think I am going to try to climb in a stand just yet though. I will probably hunt from the ground tommrow. I just hope my whole weekend isn't ruined because of this:mad:

Thanks for the offer philpot, I really appreciate it. I am going to try to hunt this weekend and see how things go. Hopefully resting today will help out. Good luck tommrow!

Try taking a real hot 30 minute bath and then stretching. I do that after a busy day and it really helps to pull out the kinks in my back. Hope it gets better :D

I couldn't hunt today because I felt so bad. It felt like a knife was being stuck in the base of my neck. But, I am feeling a little better now, and i am getting ready to go to bed and try and get up in the morning so I can hunt. Thanks for the concern fellas!

That's what the 4 wheeler is for! I'm going to let it do all the work!

hope that it works itself out...I know a few people that have had to have surgery for pinched nerves in the back and neck. good luck to you
