Jeff----My plantar fasciitis is also much better. It seems that wearing my elk hunting boots with the orthotic did the trick. I've not had any pain since elk season. I'm still doing the stretches everyday hoping to keep it at bay. FYI---My buddy killed a cow elk just below me on the ridge---the herd ran up past me. I knew he had shot & let them go. I had several bulls in my scope with the safety off. But 1 elk was enough work & I didn't press the trigger. Bob
