Bows are like cars and computers. The minute you buy one, it is obsolete. I have had the same PSE bow for 6 years and I can get 2" groups at 30 yds from a tree. Why spend the money when what I got works fine?

Just curious, my 2001 mathews q2 is starting to feel old.
My last NEW bow was the MQ1, then I bought a used Legacy and am still using it. Those older bows still kill critters with the best of 'em!

My first and only new bow was september of last year. Plan to keep shooting it for years to come. Before that, it was a Bear Whitetail II that I got used for an early sixtenth birthday present in summer of 1996. The draw length was too long, and I did not have any instruction (my dad is strictly a rifle hunter), so I couldn't hit squat with it. Therefor, I rarely hunted with it (onoy one or two times).

2003 BowTech Extreme VFT and it's still working fine.

I am thinking about one next year though, but only because I want to drop back to 60 lbs peak weight. I'm getter older and I can feel it.
