How many bows?

<< < (3/3)

osage outlaw:
I'm guessing I have around 25 selfbows in my possession right now.  Very few of them are ones that I have built.  They seem to always find a new home.  In fact, I think I only have 3 of my own bows at the moment.  I need to finish up a couple for myself.  I have no idea how many total bows I have made.  I used to keep count at the beginning.  For a while I would make 4 or 5 a year.  Now I'm down to 1 or 2 a year.  It seems like I just don't have the time to spend on them.   

BowEd:
One thing is I've made at least 5 different designs of self bows/a few different designs of wood or bamboo backed bows/sinewed wood bows/and horn bows along the way.

Aaron H:
I've only built around 30 or so.   I think I have 5 or 6 that I've made, including my first, and a couple for my kids.   I enjoy giving them away best

But I also have 15 - 20 at some stage of progress.  Nearly every one of them different designs like Ed

upstatenybowyer:
Geez, I've probably made about 100-150. Out of those I think maybe 15 are nice enough to give to someone who hunts, shoots all the time, or is a collector. I've given 5 of those away to such folks. Like Aaron, that's my favorite part about this hobby.  :)

Ryan Jacob:
I dont have a whole of of bows. I do have about 12 halves if you cath my drift...
