How long?

RE: How long?
That's what I meant, too, Wash. I shot the Ally for one day last year.....I'll use it this year and likely next. I'll probably get a guardian to use for 3D and turkeys....maybe by next Spring. Maybe.

RE: How long?
If the bows keep getting shorter i'll have to use this thing forever. My bow is 2 years old now and it was a pain trying to find one with a decent axle to axle so I could shoot with fingers still. I eneded up getting a Bowtech Old Glory that is 37 axle to axle and honestly I'm kinda wishing I had went with the Constituion. It was a little longer and probably would have worked better for me.

I'll probably use it this season and next season. I won't be able to get out as much during college but I'll be using it when I do get out, then maybe I'll buy something else when I get out of college.

RE: How long?
Hard question to answer.I bought or traded for 2 recurves and 6 longbows this year already.And,I have a new custom longbow on order that's due in August or Sept.I also got rid of 2 recurves and 6 longbows this year so far.But I think the bows that I currently have,I'll be holding on to for quite awhile

RE: How long?
Good question...for me, probably 3 years (last two and this one). I don't have a back up bow, so I'll leave it hunt-ready. That's my way of rationalizing buying a new one. Guardian, X-Force, Cardiac and Drenalin are all on the list. Who know's, however, what advances the 2008's will bring us.

RE: How long?
I will keep a bow for as long as I'm comfortable with it. Some bows I've shot fortenyears while others only lasted one. If I'm not completely satisfied with it I will shoot it but will always be on the look out for another. If I'm happy with it I will shoot it for as long as I can till either it breaks or gets so dated that I'm forced to upgrade.
