Default RE: Are Bow Prices Too High?

Sometimes looking at things from really broad perspective helps me relate costs to usefullness. I like to feel like I "get my moneys worth" out of stuff.


See if this makes any sense:
>If you shoot 192.3 arrows a week, every week of the year for 10 years.
>That would be 100,000 shots from that particular bow (this may or may not be a reasonable life span, I'm guessing it would for the sake of my example)
>If you paid $700 for your bow, you actually paid $.007 or; less than 1 penny per shot over the life of that bow.

When I look at it like that, by all means I got my money worth. That's alot of shootin!~
