Bentstick81, You might try and go to your local health food store, and get DHEA, it is good for inflamation, and tendonitis, and tennis elbow. Also, you might try ArnicaMontana. It is really good for inflamation, and damaged tendons, and muscles. Also try rubbing, Olive oil, Coconut oil, etc. on your fingers, and hands, in the morning, and evening. You just might see a difference. Not just in your skin condition. The bow looks nice, practice, and then go for it.
