Probably 80 old Bear bows sometimes called a 'collection' and 4 modern hunting bows that see regular use.

Back down to an even 10. One bow for each finger, makes it easy to do inventory.

21 at the moment. I need to thin the herd a bit. I made a selfbow and a Hill style bow this month with help from the guys on the Bowyers Bench and now have that sickness.

About 12, stopped wanting to count them. I have enough to last my lifetime, I'll never need another. But I do think I will start making self bows.

21 right now.  Theyare made up of:

- 17 finished selfbows. 6 in process.

- 1 bamboo backed osage.  1 in process.

- 1 glass recurve.

- 2 glass longbows.

Except for the St. Jude auction, I have only paid cash for 2 trad bows for myself in my life.  Both were $10 garage sale bows.  I did splurge for a $20 Craigslist bow for my brother  :)

I'm an addict, but a cheap one!

24.

One is at the door shipping today.  Another I am tempted to trade at a great trade offer.  

Have 3 out on loan and honestly do not intend to see them again.

3 cannot be shot anymore and should be fire wood.

I have 4 longbows that all have their place

I have 7 recurves that have their their place on my rack (one for bowfishing 2 are my Wife's)

the rest are or will be for sale.

One now, second on the way.  Plan on having a baseball team or 2 worth by the time I retire.  I will just tell the wife it is an investment?  That will work!
