I knew my irrational behavior wasn't as bad as I listed. I put the Super Wildcat (Rose Oak) on the list twice.  I have only one of these. Whew! Now I feel better.

Well, they say the first step to recovery is admitting one has a problem. Reckon I am not ready to get help yet!  :D  

 
I like this statement as well.
If it's written down, it can be used against me later!

Very true Marty.

C'mon Froggy, Rnharris, you do it and I'll think about it.

Wow! Absolutely incredible!

And I thank you very much for easing my conscience... hmm let's see now... 66 inch longbow, 5 pounds heavier, bamboo limbs, quilted maple veneer, moose horn tips......
May your next adventure lighten your heart, test your spirit, and nourish your soul.

I think that I will quit counting; I reached half of Danny's total, listing them in my head (And the list does not include the ones I have made).  I definitely will not write them down for the wife to find.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

This would keep me up past my bedtime.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Goto=

Longbow
1. Habu Vyperkahn T/D Longbow
2. Voodoo Kustom Elk Riser T/D Longbow
3. Palouse T/D Longbow

Recurve
1. Morrison Cheyenne T/D Recurve
2.Hoyt Huntmaster T/D Customized Recurve
3.Palouse T/D Static Recurve


When I get a different one I shoot it against these Keepers and if it knocks out a keeper so be it. Sometimes it is so close that I add another to the keeper/goto list. A great system, so far I have only let one bow go that I wish I had kept. But it was for a friend so good deal still!
