How many arrows/BH's do you have?

It's good to have a few bows but to be honest, a bow without arrows/BH's is just another billy club; I am focusing on getting my inventory of arrows/BH's way up;
What's your inventory looking like?

1 bow, 3 strings, a dozen arrows, about 18 broadheads...2 different models of Magnus.
I'm somewhat of a minimalist...once I find what works, I go with it. I may order another dozen arrows soon, though.

I usually build and tune a dozen arrows.3 are bareshaft,3 have field points and 6 have broadheads.I then make up 3 blunts to interchange with the field points.If I brake or lose a broadhead arrow,I replace it by fletching one of the bare shaft.
I have 4 bows that will tune to one type arrow.After my initial dozen,I wanted to play with more FOC so I built a second dozen.So 2 dozen arrows,1 dozen broadheads.
I have one other bow cut a good bit past center and it takes a different arrow.I did basically the same thing so 2 dozen for it with a dozen broadheads.
These will last me a long time.

2 bows (one on reserve) 2 strings, 16 arrows; 6 broadheads, 10 field points.
I've found that the more arrows I have, the faster I seem to go through them. With a minimal supply, I pay more attention to shots and focus more on not losing or breaking any when target or stump shooting. It has helped with my consistency since I don't have an "unlimited" number of arrows to throw at the target.

Oh dear....
10 bows
Somewhere around 100 arrows (Beeman MFX 340s & a few mixed woodys & ally)
Probably in excess of 200 broadheads, in a bucket. A good mixture of just about everything. 2, 3 & 4 bladed.

I have 2 bows a dozen arrows a piece and 3 broadheads for each. Always trying new broadheads so I haven't stocked up on any yet. Thinking about going to the same arrow for both bows and adjusting with a differnt point weight.

BH & arrow poor w/maybe a hundred each or more. Prefer Ace 160gr on heavy wood shafts. 750gr total. Guess I could trade bunches I'm not using. All 2-blades.

1 Bow, 16 arrows, 3 judo points, 3 hammer small game heads, 6 woodsman broadheads, and a partridge in a pear tree*
*As soon as partridge comes back into season I'll fling an arrow at him, I promise.

2 bows, dozen arrows for each, probably 10 bh an array of field points and blunts. Just started not long ago. I'm afraid it will grow with time!

Two take down recurves, thirty 2212 aluminum arrows, six 3 blade Muzzy 75 grain broadheads and eighteen 2 blade STOS broadheads broken down into six 130 grain, six 145 grain and six 160 grain.
I'm not going to include the 2114s, 2213s, 2215s and 2117s which are my heavy to very heavy arrow setups.

I seem to find myself one bow short of what I "need"; about a dozen arrows shy of where I want to be; and 3 broadheads below a perfect inventory. I am a sick, sick, man.
