Why is it i enjoy trading, selling and buying bows...as much as i like shooting them??
Just when i get a new bow that i love and say i'll never get rid of it.... Off it goes...Except for my Widow..(i think) :knothead:
-
You and I could be long lost twins!!! :biglaugh:
-
I hear ya and I thought going from compound to traditional would be cheaper. Man was I wrong!
-
I have the Bow page in the classifieds set as my homepage!!!!!! :biglaugh: When I picked up my last bow in December, it arrived in the mail and I caught myself with the bow in my hands while browsing the classifieds within minutes, just to see what on the market!

Unless you've reached 90+ bows bought, sold and/or traded in 8+ years, you're still working on catching up. And I'm not even close to Bob Barnes' and Bob Ferrel's pace. Those fellas go through bows like women go through shoes!

I lasted 2 days lol..

It's a disease that I have also. For me, symptoms are exacerbated by cabin fever. Speaking of which.......check out the Widow longbow (http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=029337;p=1#000004) I have listed. I'm gonna put my 60" 50# Quinn Stallion up there also.
Moving to shorter bows. :thumbsup:

Mine is a slow progressing disease. I have never been able to part with a bow I've owned so I have to save up and pick them out carefully. Come fall I will have been shooting three years and I have bought 4 bows for me, one for the wife, three kids bows and have another bow on order. Thank goodness for good deals on used bows.

No comment. :saywhat:

I wish I could be,but it's difficult when-
a-You don't earn sqat
b-I hate selling stuff
c-I have too many other hobbies that need attention.
-
I'm glad I kicked that disease :scared: Doc

When I tell my wife I'm done trading for a while, or need to sell a couple bows.
She just looks at the floor and shakes her head, She knows me too well!
Winter is the worst, cabin fever and new bow syndrome!

I guess there are some benefits to being a custom bowmaker. But sometimes it is really difficult to let one go. Sometime I will test shoot a bow and try to figure out a good sounding lie to tell the customer he has to wait a few more weeks. But, I never do.

You guys made me think, so I went into my bow room and counted. I have 32 bows. Sold one about 3 months ago. First time in 10 years. I still miss it. However, I'm about to go over the hill to Montana and talk to Craig Ekin.

I'm with David, no comment... ;)

If I could just get over this short bow erge.
-
I dont have a problem getting rid of a bow if I have never shot a critter with it but I keep thinking that my new bow may be bad luck and wont kill anything. Then when I do kill something with it I still cant seem to let the other one go because I used it for....... whatever. So far I have kept the number down to 3 but I am still a regular visitor to the classified pages.

You all are just sick people. :saywhat: Eventually, you will be completely cured and able to carry out a somewhat normal lifestyle. Why, I'll even pay for the shipping charges! :bigsmyl:
