You know getting older, Christmas is wonderful and all. But not like, when I was a youngster. The anticipation and excitement of things to come, has now changed into the mailman or the little brown truck. And it’s always me waiting on the same thing. A New Used bow! I’ve became very good at buying them. I really stink at selling them! I have a really hard time selling them. They usually always have more going for them, than against them. I almost wish I could be banned from the Traditional bows for sale site.
      So now I wait impatiently for a New Used Centaur. I have read so many good compliments about them, I just could not resist. Our local indoor winter league should start week from today. I was amazed last year, there where around 20 shooters all trad!  I will fall right back in to shooting a different bow every week. I just cannot resist shooting the bows I have. I did stick though the hunting season shooting only one bow. But now target season is to begin. Yee HAAA I get to shoot them all!

But hey I shoot for fun, I’m not a serious competitor.

Anybody seen my maillady?       :scared:     Whats it called Rowanitis?     :D

Rowanitis...  :biglaugh:  
I would have called it Danemia, except it appears that Donnie is equally prone to the syndrome.

Killdeer~more bows than pegs.  :rolleyes:

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

There ya' go Varmint - All those flyrod purchases were just an investment in your future.  Just think what you might be able to upgrade a trad bow collection to someday.  You might be able to buy that dream hunting land one bow at a time!

I had an outbreak of it just now....made the payment for the limbs on a Cheyenne by phone just now...after reading this post! So, more scientific evidence that this disease can surface from visual stimulation!

I keep telling myself "all my racks are full" to keep myself from that "BUYING" thing.

Alas, I did some re-arrangeing last night and accidentaly found FOUR! empty pegs.  :knothead:  

I am starting to get the "shakes" as I type.  :help:
