How long do you keep a bow?

[robbcayman]

Just curious to see how long on average people keep their bows?

[8pt~Bowhunter]

3 years.

[SwampCollie]

I usually buy a new one every four years.... depending on how blown away I am with the new technology that has come out in the meantime.

Conversely my newest recurve is ten years older than I am.... built in the early 70s.

as long as one will last me, thats how long ill keep it

[MichiganWhitetails74]

My Hoyt is an 03 and I'm confident with it...its light and fast.....So I'm keeping it....but 2009 has the DXT on my mind.

It varies with me. I had my Jennings Buckmaster since 01 and hunted with it until last season when I switched to my CR334. Hunted with that for one season, and now I have a 101st. I suppose I'll continue at this pace until marriage rolls around[8D]

[nchawkeye]

I have bow hunted since the late 60s...

I have owned 3 bows.....

[im ocd]

Untill I want a new one.

This is a good question. I've actually been thinking about asking it recently. I've been bow hunting for a year, going on my second. I can see myself keeping mine for 2 or 3 more seasons then getting another one.
