Multiplying bows

About a year or so ago I had sold all my bows except one. I was a one bow guy. Well today my lovely wife was cleaning up the spare bedroom and wanted me to get my BOWS off the bed. Get this, There were 5 right there on the bed, where there used to be only one. Who would have thought bows would multiply like that? :rolleyes:

You need to keep your bows off the bed!!! They get all kinds of ideas when you leave them unsupervised on the bed.

Perhaps they are rabbit or hog bows.

That's what happens when you keep them in a bedroom. Try hanging them on the wall - separated.

The thing is the one bow I started the year with is the one that I almost always took hunting. I did pick up a 57 Kodiak for cheap, took it hunting a few times.
I guess I need to make a rack for them.

If I put mine on the bed I would need another bed or two.........

Put 2 in the closet so your wife can see them. When you get a new one , put it in closet, take one out so there is still 2. Unless your wife shoots, all they see is 2 bows, not what kind. Works with rifles also.

The condition is known as Gear Acquisition Syndrome (GAS) and there is no known cure.
I've had GAS with bows, firearms, guitars, tools, even dirt bikes!

I have four bows, down from five, and my wife thinks I should de-populate to two.

Luckily for me, all bows look the same to my wife - only keep 6 on the rack where she can see them.

They do multiply! I'm selling some bows and forcing myself to figure out which bow I would sell before buying another.
