    I bought mine 18 months ago and shoot approx 1,500 arrows per month, so I already have around 18,000 arrows through the bow. No issues and is as acvurate as ever.
    My question is what the max amount I will be able to shoot before I need to replace the bow? Any ideas?

    There is no answer to that. If you are concerned just take it to the shop for a visual inspection. All I think you might want to replace is the string and cam

    1500 shots a month? You are definitely younger than I am. :lol:

    Replacing the bow isn’t a concern at all. As long as no defects in the bow present themselves you could shoot tens of thousands of shots through the bow.

    It’s the bow string and cables you have to worry about. It’s kinda like brake pads on a car. You can brake as much as you want but the pads will have to be replaced at some point.

    Take care of string and cables, have a shop check out over every couple years and it may outlast you. Barring limb delamination, a dry fire, a severe drop or other catastrophe that is.

    I've had my bow for five years and just replaced the strings on it this year. And I've only put maybe 40 arrows through it now and I might shoot 40 more before the season start to make sure I'm still zeroed. IMO all those arrows you are shooting is stretching the strings out and you might have to replace them next year already. Just my opinion.
