Sometimes every year but usually every 3 years. Depends on how much better the new bows really are.

I have been shooting this junk Switchback for six seasons now. Had a junk Outback before that. When I find a better Hunting Bow for me no matter who makes itI will buy it. These guys get on here every year and tell us how great their bows are and then get rid of it after one season. lol Yea they really loved that bow.

I usually change every season or every other season just to keep my equipment as new as it can be that way there is not any problems with it when i'm out of town on a hunt

Every year just for the fact thatI love to play with new toys, and I can afford to do it right now.

I've changed bows, twice now. I can honestly say that I've upgraded with each change......or I wouldn't have changed. As it stands right now.......Bowtech (or someone) has their work cut out for them......if I'm going to change, again.

How do youexpand on 325fps @ 62#'s?

Too often. Just ask my girlfriend..........[8D].

I've lost count over the last 4 years or so. I probably end up with a new toy every few months or so though. I'm about to buy another now too.........probably in the next month or so.

My dad gave me a bow 10 years ago..I have only bought one bow since then. So for me, once in 10 years.

It took me about 14 years to finally buy a new bow.

going on my 3rd season with my first bow....feel no need to upgrade it as of right now...but im uprading accessories...put good sights on it last week...next is a BT release and a new rest...by hunting season i aughta have a 3rd release...just hate going into the woods with 1 and only 1 release...if it breaks, that means trying to get used to a new one or hunting down the same one i have and having it shipped...the BT will stay in my pack for real emergencys...like i left my release 150miles away at home emergencies lol...

dont know when i'll upgrade to a new bow...id really like one just for a backup...well, the current one will be the backup....but being in college and needing a new vehicle asap, i dont see a new bow in my near future....cant hunt if i dont have a vehicle.....
