My upstairs bows. Just to give y'all an idea of what I've been up to beyond forging knives and riding my mustang Annee in the past couple of months, these bows are all down to 40-43#@28.  Some started @ 60+ pounds...but those take a lot of work and design change.  Bows 55 pounds and under are quite easy.  Now I have a selection of shooters that were just collecting dust...tippit

I am glad you posted that picture.  I was feeling bad about my 8 bows.  In the words of Larry Potterfield, "maybe just one more."

I need to show my wife this......I told her I wasn't the only one........she didn't believe me.

I wish I had the skill and knowledge to do that kind of work. There are a lot of nice bows out there that could be put to use.

Wow! You have been busy.

There's downstairs bows?......

Me too....

Whew...I'm good!  I thought that I had a problem!  Ha!!  Nice collection doc

We are traditional bow lovers.....we all DO have a problem. Some of us longer then others, but give it time guys. Admission is the first step to getting better and im not seeing any admissions here....  

I don't see it as problem...more as a life time hobby. I've enjoyed them all and now I get to enjoy them a second time around.

ENJOY them Jeff    :D   They deserve to be shot  

Great idea Jeff, a fine way to keep old friends active and enjoyed.

When I first started this journey, I heard (yes I could hear back in  the 80's) the saying...  

"Fear the Guy who Shoots only One bow."

Well heck I thought...I'm a nice guy and surely I wouldn't want anyone Fearing me.  I swear that's how it All Started...tippit

Jeff you've be busy , don't gues we could talk you into doing a tuitoral for us that don't have close to your skills. Bob

Nice collection.  But is it a good idea to keep them stored standing up like that?  It will twist a limb.

Keith,
Never had one twist a limb...these are being used on a regular basis.  Basement bows are all in racks.

How many racks are there? ( I figured the racks are easier to count, and you "might" only need a two digit number.)  

A tutorial is a great idea!!

I have a Kanati that needs to loose a few pounds. I just need a little guidance to get started.

Sand just the edges or the belly or both? Looks like you got it down pat Jeff!
