Well I've been shooting recurves since I was able to walk so I've been slinging arrows for 30+ years. Bows that I've owned and hunted with would be 3-Martin Lynx, XI Impact, Windwalker Takedown Recurve. I've been bow hunting for 23 years.

Counting from my first rabbit that was skinned, cleaned, cooked and eaten, I've been hunting for50 years. Been shooting bows longer than that. But I also shot competition and tournament shooters go through some bows. I can only remember 15 compounds, 8 longbows,21 recurves and God only knows how many selfbows. I know I've hadmore than that though. Of that lot, there are 6 I'd love to have back and none of those sixare compounds.

LOL!! Bowhunting 40 years and I've owned between 50 and 60 bows. I remember in 03 I bought1 Mathews, 2- Hoyts, 1 High Country and I also bought my first 2 Bowtechs. I kept them for a couple of months and finally weeded down to one Bowtech. It's been Bowtechs for me ever since, and they have performed as advertised.

Bowhunting for 8 years now have owned 4 compounds:
PSE Lightning Flite (sold it for $10 profit.... first bow)
Hoyt Ultra-Tec (bought new, sold to my best friend for a song)
Mathews LX (back up and night hunting bow.... bought it new for $200... couldn't pass it up)
HCA Iron Mace (the main squeeze)

And four recurves:
Bear Black Bear (the one I shoot the most)
Bear Kodiak Mag (I think its a Mag)
Ben Pearson.... something (got it for the girlfriend)
Hoyt Pro Hunter (sweetest of the lot... but only 38#s)

Bow hunting since 1978 owned a bear whitetail(used and owned 1 yr) then bought a darton Trailmaster in 1979 used it on/off till 1990. Bought another darton(can't remember the name)in 1990 and in 93 bought a darton mustang. I hunted on/off till 2007 and then purchased a ross 337(06). I just bought an excalibur phoenix x-bow 2 months ago.I presently own 3 bows the Darton Mustang, Ross 337 and my x-bow.
