how many bows have you owned?
and how many years have you hunted?
I have been bow hunting for 30 years and just started on my 3rd bow. If I keep up this pace I will be due for a new one in about 2023 lol

Three compounds;
Martin Jaguar
Bowtech Allegiance
Hoyt Trykon
One recurve;

RE: how many bows have you owned?
I've been bowhunting since the age of 12, so that makes........this my 24th season.
I've owned something like 40 compounds now counting the 25 Bowtechs and DiamondsI've owned since 2000.
Since I've also branched into Traditional archery I have owned 2 longbows and 5 recurves as well.
(Don't forget that a good number of the Bowtech's are competition bows as well)

RE: how many bows have you owned?
2 Compounds for me. My first one was a used Martin I bought about 12 yeas ago. Only shot 3D for the first couple of years, then stopped shooting for a few years. Then I started hunting, and hunted for a couple of yeas with that old bow, then sold that one, and bought a PSE Fireflight. Been hunting with that for about 5 years. I am hoping to save up the cash to buy a new bow next winter.
