I've shot only one bow for the last 2 years. Seems like its a part of me now. Only reason I'd consider another bow is for a backup.

I just shot one bow today. Does that count?

For hunting to have a future, we must invest ourselves in future hunters.

Men occasionally stumble over the truth,but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened.

i WAS doing just fine !!
i had my little red wing (50# @ 28)and all was good...
THEN, i met 'hawksnest' and he was a kind and giving person; i then had a recurve AND a longbow (Hickory board 68" 44# @ 28)....
few weeks later; i met this George Stout fella: he TOO was a kind a benevolent preson (64" 52 @27) ...NOW i have 2 longbows and a recurve, one bow arm,several dozen arrows,two gloves....shoot just ONE !?!
i USE-TUH...Thanks for the help guys

That should be a compound bow question.  They don't know what they're missing.

Danny Rowan

YEAH, RIGHT! Got 5 on  the rack and shoot them every day. I shoot them all well so why just stick to one. Got three more coming. One bow,that just ain't right.

This must be a trick question   :saywhat:  
Unless you only own one bow it just ain't right to let the others feel neglected.   :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:

That's bow abuse! I have my fav's but I still try and give them all a work out now and then. Never know when you might need them, don't wanna piss them off!

I've never succeeded shooting two bows at the same time TonyW. I'd get one in each hand and couldn't figure out the best way to pull the strings back!    :bigsmyl:

One bow for me! I don't throw others into the equation at all. I get acquainted with one & do my best to become a good shot with it. I took up the longbow 3 years ago & before that shot the same compound for 14 years, I'm not an experimenter!! (grin) My son has shot the same recurve for 4 years. (Brackenbury Drifter)

as i make bows all year long i shoot them in etc, etc.  that seems to satisfy a little but i always feel the need for something new.

I only own 2.  The first is a Bear Kodiak mag that I hunted for over 8 years with, then I bought a shrew recurve 7 years ago and have exclusively hunted with it.

Ok would my take down with 4 different sets of limbs count as one..........bowdoc

I'd have to say no because I have a martin hatfield that I use for bowfishing every year, but other than that, it's 1 bow all year. When I only owned the hatfield that was all i used. Then I bought a schafer that I used for years. Now its my GM longbow. I don't like switching bows.
