Why do you buy a new bow?
 

What motivates you to buy a new bow?

I would have to say for the newer technology. Granted I just got my first bow recently and I got it used (Bear Whitetail Legend) but when I get another it will be for the newer technology.

Have not purchased a new one in about 7 years. My Hoyt Magnatech Intruder still works fine, but I'd love to have a new Trykon or BowTech. Guess I'll have to think about saving up some money.

Why do women buy 10 pairs of black pumps when one will suffice? I'm thinking about a new Fred Bear Instinct, I don't need it, the Martin Jag I have is killing deer fine....but I would like to build something up and tweek it and play with it and stroke it and gaze at it......just part of the hobby and past time.

There wasn't an option for me: Because someone steals your other one... :eek:[:-][:@]

For all the reasons above but for the first time in a long time I have 2 different bows that I don't see myself getting rid of for quite some time. I like the Apex 7's that much and will keep the 70lb'er for 3D next season, and the 56lb'er for indoors, field archery, and FITA. I will sell the XT though after hunting season is over and will get another hunting bow for next year. I will have to see what Darton and Mathews comes out with and compare them to decide what I want.

Most of the time, it's just because I want to, or I see something in a new model that impresses me or I like. I usually only get a new compound about every 4 years or so. I get a new recurve much more often than that.

I am going to set up a "New Bow Savings Account"...put away 50 bucks a month, and in 1 1/2 years you have almost a grand for a new bow.

To keep up with Rob/PABowyer; actually it is for the latest and greatest in technology. HCH

Because I needed something that fit me better than the old bow.
