Lets see......
Five here next to the computer, 10 hanging in the shop, 2 under the bed, 3 in the closet, 4 or 5 in  boxes in the loft, 8 in the den... probably got a few more hidden somewhere else.  I keep em' spread out so the wife can't count them. dino

4 right now but getting more into adding to the collection.  there are just so many nice bows out there, hard to know where to start.
It is a world with dew still on it, more touched by wonder and possiblitly than any I have since known.

Four all wood kids Bows (Uh, makes 14)

Oh yes, I also still have one 21st Century FG and wood lam bow - also a longbow. ( makes an uneven 15 - but I'm gonna get another Osage stave as soon as I find the right one - just to make it even again -   ;) )

With this weeks arrival of my new Assenheimer, I am up to 5. I,ve only been shooting trad bows since Dec 07, and my wife thinks I need to slow down a little. I just think I need to build another bow rack!

Only one remaind. Because more I cant shoot. And that one fits perfect to me. Switching between bows was not good for my technique.
