How many traditional bows do you own?
« on: February 12, 2013, 08:19:00 AM »
Simple question: How many traditional bows do you own?

  Please respond through the polling link below.  This will help talley up some demographics for the members on this site.  

Last time I posted a link to another polling site and it got removed but I've figured out how to poll within Tradgang so here goes again...

Here are the results after a couple hundred members have responded.  This should give a generally accurate estimate of the answer to this question...
 
1pc and 2pc Sarrels Sierra Mountain Longbows - both 53.5lbs @ 29"

I just started this sport, so I only own 1 at the moment. BUT, I'm already thinking what Trad bow #2 will be. Looks like it could be a snowball affect....

When you found the right bows, you don't need to own that much..... I keep telling myself...

I think I'm at 16 right now just looking around my office, might be some more bows laying around somewhere else though!  But I only shoot 1 bow most of the time!

I have and only need one-Tall Tines baby! I will get a "backup" bow here sometime. One for hunting turkey's and one for big game (camo patterns differ) But make no mistake it will be a Tall Tines! I may eventually get a longbow when funds become available.
