Work lots of OT; sell a few not being used bows, stop eating, pick up cans, whatever it takes.

I have run into this problem. New to trad archery- got addicted quick. Wanted bows that I couldn't afford and didn'want to use "family money" to pay for them. So, I sold some items from my other hobbies. I am also a collector of World War 2 Rifles as well as sports cards. I have sold a couple swiss rifles, a Russian rifle, a handgun, a Ken Griffey Jr Rookie Card and an Alexander Ovechikin Rookie Card to purchase my 76 Super Kodiak, 66 Kodiak, 55 Kodiak Special, 57 Kodiak Special, and my 67 Pearson Mustang.
