Anyone out there got a bow collection. Ones that you can take hunting at any time. I’ve started a small collection. Mathews bows of certain styles I’ve liked over the years.

I’ve got a small collection of Mathews. I’ve got a VXR 28, a Triax, a HTX and my very first Mathews which was a Q2. That Q2 has killed more deer than blue tongue. 😜

I have a pretty extensive collection at this point. A Bear Encounter, which was my first bow I ever owned.....thats my collection grin

I always throw the idea around of getting something else, but it still kills deer so I guess I'll keep it.

I wouldn't call what I have a "Collection" but I do own three Mathews bows.

I have a very nice MQ1, a great condition Switchback XT, and a mint Q2.

I love my MQ1.

Bow hunted with it a few times already this year.

I’m not a collector but rather a hoarder. I have a Bear TD recurve, another takedown recurve, two Elite’s and two Primes.

Don’t know if I would call it a collection I tend not to part ways with guns or bows. I have a browning which was my first bow from 2005, a Mathews Monster , and a Hoyt Carbon Defiant

I added one more to the collection for now.
Mathews VXR 31.5 left hand. This is the best 20 yard group I've shot with it. And so far I've only lost one arrow. It's hard to get use to this left hand thing.
