I did the same with my recurve minus the string slap injury.... I shot it to the point of failure and the trip to the chiropractor prompted the question as to why my left arm/shoulder was so tight. One mention and he responded "I need to get my azz outside and do the same." I love the fact that it feels like it weighs 1/4 of any compound. I have yet to seriously shoot a long bow for fear of losing the love for my recurve and I'd hate to do that.
