Wing Redwing Hunter( Bowfishing rig that broke)
Rustic Archer Kadiak( Gave to a buddy)
Rustic Archer Yeti Longbow( Current bow for 6 seasons)
Black Widow PL Longbow( on order)

I've always been a one bow guy. All the compounds I would buy and trade up for very little money spent just to keep trying things out every few years. I stopped shooting compound when the Creed came out whenever that was. I bought the Rize and the hybrid used to shoot with the lady but I couldn't really get into them anymore so I just have the Hybrid now and it's just punching foam with her on targets. Switched over to longbow only from recurve and going into my 7th season this year and will stay longbow and self bow.

Way too many to list and I probably forgot about half of them, I managed a shop for a long time and bought a lot of bows!

I think I still have a half dozen, but shoot two Bowtech's currently.

Started with a Browning Deluxe Nomad
Teenage years mid 2000’s, Martin Jaguar
Switch to cross bows for a couple of years when they made them legal for WT’s in my home state. Bowtech Katana and a Raven something.
Current: Mathews Phase 4

I sure do miss that Deluxe Nomad. Beautiful wood riser. Mom picked it up at a garage sale with I was 11/12. Originally for my dad but they gave it to me for my bday and I loved shooting that thing!

Then starting in 2002 every hunting flagship bow Mathews offered because I was sponsored. Last bow I got was in 2013 the Creed. Still have it ,but I'll probably buy something new finally this year haha.
