Backup Compound Bow?

Question

How do you guys feel about having a backup Bow? Im going to be getting a new one soon, shood i keep my old one for backup or sell it?

Answer 1

Sell it and let some newcomer enjoy the sport.   I still keep my old recurve, but not as a 'backup'.  I keep it for sentimental reasons.

Answer 2

A backup bow is not a bad idea as you never know what might happen to your main bow while out in the field hunting i keep a spare around for just such an emergency.

Answer 3

I like the idea. I have two backup bows myself. It's not that I need them, I just couldn't part with them. Simply too many good memories!
