Grizzly Adams 3674 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Hey, CC, I think with a properly tuned garage door opener, your pals could have a lot of fun! Wait, there's an app for that! Seriously, I suspect it will allow you to enjoy the things you want to do a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Bristol Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Grizz, When I went in for a pacemaker check with my wife. They do a low thresshold test to see how low they can set it before you get dizzy. Well when my wife saw that I almost passed out she wanted to know how to do that herself. Told the tech if he ever showed her how he would regret it for the rest of his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Coffinmaker Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 As I understand, it's going on the left side and I shoot from the right (long guns - Gunfighter). We are NOT gonna tell the wif how to hack into it. <}:-( Coffinmaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Bristol Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 The doc that put mine in never asked me anything and put it on my right. I am right handed but the pacemaker is just far enough toward the center of chest that I can still shoulder my rifles well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt Dan Blodgett, SASS #75655 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 You make want to ask the doc about running vs walking kind of thing and if you are told not a good idea to run, well then it is not a good idea to run, so shoot your stages appropriately. If the doc says you are good to go, then you will be good to go. Sucks to know we are no longer bullet proof nor capable of leaping tall buildings in a single bound. This does not mean we cannot have a great time so long as we respect our limitations. Good luck to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
