Default How many arrow do you own?

Well most girls have shoes, and us archers have arrows, so my question is how many do you have?

All in all I think I havesomewhere around 14 dozen,all different kinds of just my own. I could add a few more to that if I added my wifes and kids arrows too.

There's no such thing as too many.

Is there?

A lot and then a few more. I have carbon for 2 different bows, I have aluminum for 3 different bows and I have a few dozen POC for the recurve. I was recently given about 150 different aluminum arrows. That brought my total up to a bit more than a bunch. I just gave away a dozen and there isn't even a dent!

I really have no idea how many arrows are laying around in the garage, odd survivors of past dozens. Boxes of 'em. Old quivers full of 'em. Some have been with me more than 40 years, like some old #5 MicroFlights. I guess I have to vote 'ridiculous'.

I have about 1 1/2 dozen usable arrows right now. I think from now on, I am going to invest in my own equipment to fletch my own arrows and just by the materials from now on.

Oh my.......this is my weakness. I just cleaned them up this week too and sorted through everything. Not including the box of odd misc arrows that I'm donating to the kiddies at the local club, I'm keeping the following:

3x dozen Goldtip 30x Pro's (indoors/3D)
3x dozen Goldtip Pro 22's (3D)
2x dozen Goldtip CAA 350's (hunting)
1x dozen Goldtip CAA 400's (field archery)
1x dozen Goldtip 7595 XT's (hunting)
Six PSE Radial Weaves (brand new, will set these up for a beginner someday I guess)
7 K&K Angels (FITA)

This is a picture of the arrow stash taken last year, I've accumulated quite a few more since this one was taken.

Too many arrows is like having too many bullets. There is no such thing.
