anyone else buying things out of control ?

[Brian Krebs]

The season is still weeks away - and I am ready to defend Sherwood forest.

 Anyone else buying arrows; broadheads; trail cams; pack saddles ( whew ) and other hunting stuff to excess?

[artelkhunter]

Sure, I think it hits us all this time of year.  Getting ready and re-outfitting for the up coming year is half the fun!!

[Buckeye Trad Hunter]

No, but the only thing stopping me is a trip to an amusement park and a trip to take a ride on Thomas the Train with my 4 year old.  Don't have the money for both and I'm not exactly starving for hunting gear.

[chopx2]

guilty as charged...just bought another dozen arrow shafts and wraps!

[BOWMARKS]

Not at the moment but always looking!!

[sendero25]

Yep, every trip to the store or Wally world finds me buying a few batteries for lights, thermacell refills,canned foods and anything else for camp.
I just ordered new bowstrings from Black Widow, and feathers to fletch a half dozen Easton Axis 500 shafts, and a dozen 2016's.  I love the pre-season!!
If I sharpen my broadheads or knives any more I won't have any steel left!!
Oh yeah, propane, I buy lots of propane!!
Our local grocery store has Chef boyardee spaghetti, ravioli, beefaroni, 10 for 10 dollars..I have to stock up!!!
Lots of canned beef stew......gosh I have to go shopping tomorrow!!!! DOH!

[sendero25]

and lots, and lots of Spam!!! and canned corned beef!!

I bought two new bows in the last week a dozen arrows,feathers, tips and the same for my two kids. I have issues.

[sorno]

Pack saddles, eh Brian?  Can I hunt with you?

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Waiting on some BH's and Feathers.

[joevan125]

Yep i have 4 custom bows due any minute now, i can't believe they were all finished at the same time.          

[browndown]

This is sick, but Joe let me know if you want to let any of them go.

[Barney]

Work's been too slow to spend money on stuff I already have.  

[gordie]

my motto for the last 12 months :

"use what you got"...

[JCJ]

nope

[bawana bowman]

Got a brand new 3D buck standing in my office which I haven't bothered to take outside. Still shooting the 3D turkeys I put out prior to Spring Gobbler.
Have bought enough shafts, feathers, nocks, BH's, and field points to supply a small army, and haven't had time to build one arrow in the last 2 months. And I still have 500 cane shafts going to be delivered this coming week!

Need to twist up strings for 3 of my bows, 2 for my Grandson, 2 for my son, and 4 for friends. Promised they would all be ready by next Friday. Guess I'll do 3 or 4 tonight.

If I had time to build all that I buy, I could open an on-line shop. But I don't. And somehow this doesn't stop me from buying more.   :D  

And to top it all off. Even with no time to build the arrows I have materials for. I'm having friends request I start building bows again.    

Have enjoyed buying bows the last few years, and am in the market for 1 or 2 for each Grandson at present. But since I still have all my old forms, hoses, and compressor, Think I may just try to find the time to go back to building them again. Never know it may mean more to the grandsons if I make them rather than buy?

Just need the time! Would also make the wife happy if I would start moving some of my stockpile!
