    I bought two new ones last year. One in March and one in August. I will never sale my Revenge. Love that bow. The other one I will probably sale it this year and get another dual cam. I like the single cam bows ok, just not for me i guess. Will probably pick up a Hoyt Faktor 30 this year.

    I have a 2010 Sentinel I bought used from Ben/PA in July of 2010 I believe. Still my main bow. Bought an 09 Marquis in March of 2010 as my backup. Still use both. I may upgrade soon, but I find there are so many better places to spend my money.

    I bought my Mathews Drenalin in '09. I bought my Mathews Z7 Magnum in 2011. I sold my Drenalin in 2013 and I bought my Mathews Totally Lost Creed in 2013. I always like to have 2 bows. It will be a while before I buy a new one. Unless Mathews makes a new single cam bow in the near future that blew me away like the Z7 series did. Even then, I will always keep my Z7 Magnum. I will have it until I die.

    I bought my PSE Stinger for the 2013 season. I would like to upgrade to a bowtech experience, but since it is my second I need to invest in more of the basic gear. So that probably means 3 yrs

    I got my 2012 pse dream season two weeks ago. Had never been shot. Hoping to get it dirty this coming season (May to August in south Africa - although ) I might get a target bow or one for my fiance if finances allow

    Bought my 2011 Prime Centroid in late July of 2012. It's not going anywhere for a long time. Worst case I'll buy a target rig and give the Centroid a break from pulling double duty.

    I got my Mathews Helim October 2012. Not sure how long I will keep it for but probably another year or two.

    My 11 year old LX keeps killing big buck. Why lose her to a wanna be! LOL. She's not the best to most but to me she's awesome!

    I have had my Hoyt Carbon Matrixx since early 2012. Like another post up top, it will have to be something earth shattering for me to sellout and go into debt again... Also I need a long ATA and my draw length is almost 31. That keeps me from enjoying Mathew's bows. I love my Hoyt. But Im of the opinion that whatever bow you choose and it shoots great for you then that is your brand...

    Got my PSE Stinger 3G in June of 2013 and smoked a nice buck with it this season, ill be keeping this bow till i max out the poundage. And may just keep this bow just because it was my very first bow and just upgrade eventually. But right now I'm just thankful to have a bow and being able to hunt! (since I'm the only one in my family that hunts and I'm only 15) :)
