Why do I keep looking at classifieds????WHY

[Danny Rowan]

Lord knows I have all the bows I ever need, all Schafer Silvertips, but I just cannot stop looking at classifieds on here and some of the sponsers.            Now Tommy at RMS has a bow that I have owned several of but either sold or traded off that I just could not stop myself from buying. A Harrison Siberian Wolf,60", 59#@28",t/d, looks like macassar ebony in the riser. One of these days I will find a cure for my affliction

You are not alone,I have plenty of bows but just can't help to keep looking in the classifieds myself!

I have a beautiful wife that I love very much. That doesn't keep me from a strenuous eyeball exercise regimen.

Hey.......it's fun!

[Sixby]

I check it out every day. Its like a sickness , But ohhhhhhhhhhh so good.
God bless, Steve

[KSshrewman]

one of you say yes to the two I have listed please!  I need to replace them with lower #....
WHC & Roberston...I'm guessing you probably need both!  

[LoneWolf73]

Because you are hoping I will someday sell the only set of Recurve limbs made for a Cari-bow Silver Fox??? LOL

[Yellow Dog]

Danny, there's no cure. There's a 56" Kwyk Styk on there right now that I've already owned not once but twice! Caught myself yesterday digging through the bow pile to see what I had to throw out there for a trade.

It's the first thing I look at when I open up Tradgang, really I try to be a one bow person, I think you become much more accurate that way, but I have a problem staying with one bow, right now my Dakota is THE ONE, don't know what it will be next season, I need help.

For me it often starts off innocently enough when, like now, I have a bow for sale there, which means I need to kind of check up on it, you know, several times a day. Because nobody would just send me a private message or anything if I don't check on it. Then as long as I'm there, I might as well see what's selling. Then...well, you know the rest of the story, Danny.

Refuse the notion of staying away from the classifieds, embrace your affliction and continue being a man happy hunting.

I know why I do it.

Last summer, at Baltimore, Mr. Asbell asked me, "Why so many bows?"

I don't remember my response, probably something like, "They are all different."

Yes, they are all different. Just like my guns, I buy them to try them out, see how the actions differ, see how to load them best, see which ones I like the best.

I see the specialness of each one. I seldom part with one. I find one I like and get another for backup.

I work too much and life takes up the rest of the time. I wish I could shoot more. I wish I could hunt more. I am frustrated and feel powerless. I buy a bow because I can, and I am visualizing being in the woods, feeling a clean release, and a pinwheeling fletch hitting the mark.

Frustration feeds the economy here.
Thanks, Fred, for the brain fodder.

I just came from the classifieds, and I don't need any more bows either.  I understand...  

[Bowwild]

My routine here is 1st PowWow for interesting threads;cool hunt stories, hunt plans, and occasionally a technical conversation that increases my archery insight. I also like to read opinions on different recurves.

Then I go to the Trad Bow classifieds to look at beautiful bows owned by other people.

You just have it Bad, Danny

[jmrsyrs]

Let me know when you find the cure - I check them at least twice a day.

[cacciatore]

I am glad I am a lefty so there are much less temptations for me and I can buy directly from the bowyers,someone has to help this bad economy.

[redfish]

Just know that you are not alone. That's all I'm gonna say.

[Guss]

Danny, I wish I could tell you the cure..!!  Keeps me in the hot water with the wife..!!!
