How Many Bows

[SVL]

Since it was raining last night I decided to do an inventory of equipment for insurance information. The list was as follows
Personnal Bows
3 Recurve (Yamaha, Hoyt and Carbonfast)
1 Compound
1 Longbow
1 Turkish Bow

Bows belonging to other members of familly
Recurve Trainer Bow (son)
Mongolian Bow (husband

My Bows I use for teaching and new club members
4 Recurve Trainer Bows
5 Fibreglass bows

Bows belonging to the club
3 recurve trainer bows
4 fibreglass bows

Bows borrowed from another club
1 recurve trainer bow
6 fibreglass bows

I am now considering moving into a bigger house. Anybody else as got more bows than they can cope with ?

[MikeD]

I'm feeling a little better now. I may be a member of more archery clubs than anyone else in the UK, but I only have three bows and there are only 6 bows in the house altogether.

One recurve two compounds and and old fiberglass one I use for reversals, mind you half the time I always seem to have someone else's bow here too doing work on it

One recurve, tempted to buy a second riser for indoor. Put off longbow by breakage of bow and arrows. Breaking equipment is not something I can get used to. Imagine, you have got used to your longbow over a period of time, aquired a matched set of arrow. Shooting in strong sideways wind, and your piles snap off. Hit another arrow and you are one more arrow down, somone does not pull arrows out of the boss well and another handful of sticks. The metal detector does'nt t, so out comes the rake. Horrible!

Two right-handed recurves, a compound and an AFB that I use, one left-handed recurve that I don't. I bought it (very very cheap) with the idea that it would help me develop both sides of my body equally, but...well, I haven't been using it. One day I'll start doing all these things...

[Stace]

I have both a recurve and a compound but the recurve is going.

The compound may also be on its way as soon as I find its replacement.

Me: 1-piece hunter recurve, recurve trainer (to be donated to Eldest)
Wifey : recurve trainer
Youngest : recurve trainer

Now, I'd like an AFB to add to mine (please nicely sometime soon......)

Just my Helix and trusty Longbow.

However, several sets of arrows for each, etc take up enough room

[Murray]

Ours:
Four recurves - two competition, two practice/backup/reversals

Clubs:
About 10 fibreglass bows
About 8 wooden bows
6 x surprise risers with rolan limbs
2 x Mathews Genesis

And a partridge in a pear tree..

Two compounds ( plus two retired bows) and an AFB ( which I shoot badly).
