Default How often do you buy a new bow?

I have had the same bow for 5 years now, and I see some guys buying a new bow every year or so. How often do you buy a new bow? I like getting comfortable with a bow, and sticking to it.

Every other day or so....<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

3 or 4 a year sounds about right, though I do keep the ones I like for a longer period of time.

I'm with you Jeff and BBH. Not that i wouldn't mind trying different ones, I've got a PSE that does the job and probably will stick with it for awhile.
If I happen to come into a large amount of cash I don't know what to do with...We'll never mind, My wife will know what to do with it.

I normally trade mine in on a new one every 2-3 years. This year since I was really happy with my old bow, but still had the bug to get a new one I had my eye on, I kept 'em both. Thanks to some of the guys here on this board, I saw the need to have a &quot;back up bow&quot;. I like the way some of you guys think! <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
