BIG GAME

I was on a huge Montana bowyer kick for about five years.  Robertson, Bear Paw, Schafer, Howard Hill, Centaur, Thunderhorn and Toelke.  I owned one or multiple at one time and got to see the shops and meet the bowyers.  By far the best bow and bowyer IMO was Jared and Dan Toelke.  I have moved on to a Black Widow for right now, but if I ever get away from them I will buy more Toelke bows.

35 to 40.  Too many, but I have owned and shot some wonderful bows.

Fifteen or sixteen, I hunted with a Martin Hatfield for 12 years and never gave much thought to trying anything else.  Then I met Steve and shot his Fox Breed and Shrew and Caribow and the list grows.  I check the classifieds nearly every day now.  Jim

In about seven years of shooting (with a ten year gap in the middle), and including my daughter's bow, and my wife's, and my yellow fiberglass bow as a kid... I think seven. I only own one that I shoot. There'd be more if I could afford 'em!

hello, my name is rob, and i WAS a bow-aholic.

since i started in 1953, i WAS seriously addicted to all manner of archery bows and i still have a record of most of them i bought/owned, for a total of about 112 (save for a gaggle of lemonwood and osage selfbows my dad made for me back in the 50's).  it WAS a sickness, but i enjoyed the beauty of wood and craftsmanship and artistry.  thankfully, today i have but 3 bows and all are keepers, the mad bow questing is over.  amen.  anyhoo, it ain't the bow that matters most, it's the archer ... and then the arrow.   ;)

I'm going to probably have to plead the fifth amendment on that one. Some things ae best left unsaid.
Lefties are the only ones who hold the bow in the right hand.
