How many arrows I have is relative.

If you count the arrows I have laying around in the bushes, waiting to be found, I have 100s!

How many I can lay my hands on right now, is a different number.

About a dozen good ones and about 40 that I need to throw in the garbage or find a way to recycle.

I do a lot of 3D shoots, stump shooting, and hunting, so my arrows don't last long. I don't spend a lot of time looking for lost ones either, I like to think someone will find them one day.

.....after about a minute to look they become "sacrifices to the woodland Gods"........I will go to some shoots only once a year and find one or more of my arrows in the lost arrow bucket.

Mudd,

If you love an arrow, set it free.

If it comes back to you, its a Boomerang.

I have 3 dozen carbon express 250's that I shoot full length scince I have dropped down in bow weight and have improved my form and alignment, something I should have done years ago, but was not a member of this site and did not know any better. I am 6'4" and was shooting bows around 70# with arrows cut to 28", I was snap shooting & completly out of alignment, and doing everything wrong. Thanks tradgang for getting me headed in the right direction!

Oh ya, I also have at least 200 arrows stashed here and there of different brands, and sizes, all around 28", I just have to figure out what to do with them all now, I'm thinking of making a pop up blind out of them!  :)

For the Zona & Sky Hawk I have right around 36 - 40.

My grandfathers Grizzly I have around 24.

I have 20 arrows I used for indoor ready for my next 39-41# bow.

I have 26 Cedar Shafts that I'm slowly going to work into some shootable arrows "one day."

Around 106.

My 3 year old has around 6-8 arrows.
My 9 year old has 25 arrows.
My wife has around 18 arrows.

If I look hard enough I may find at least a dozen or two of arrows or shafts that I don't have a use for "yet."

With out counting I would say I have a least 500 arrows of some kind. My wife just shakes her head when she comes in my room.
