It's come down to one goes before another one comes. She still thinks they all cost the same, and I would like for it to stay that way.

No exaggeration here. I got my first bow when I was 9. since that time I have owned hundreds of bows. Actually probably in the thousands. Not counting bows I have made. I bought and sold bows on the net and had over 2000 sales., all bows and quivers and arrows. Owned a bow shop for 10 plus years but had tons of bows before all that.
So no way can I remember. Never had a Jack Howard though,. and funniest thing of all I have never owned a Black Widow. I doubt I could even remember all the Bears I have had. I think about every model since about 1952 through the 70s and bunches of multiples of most of them Same with Howatts . Pearsons and shakespears and Herters and Brownings. I have to go with the shotgun With Killy plus no matter how much time I doubt I could ever remember even half of them. Interesting thread though.

God Bless you all, Steve
