Are you happy with your hunting bow?

I've got a 20-year-old Bowtech, and a bunch of recurves. It still works just fine, but if it breaks I'll be up a creek trying to get replacement parts. I'll probably replace it with something a bit newer, but my budget is very limited - as evidenced by my 20-year-old Bowtech. The new Bear RTH packages look enticing, but the local shop usually has some used options. And the pawnshops do as well. So, we'll see.

Needs a select more than one option. I selected tinker with everything, but I like my bow and plan to keep it for a long time, hope to start learning trad this summer and recently picked up a HC mini, so can almost choose anything but option #2, which would be my go to if I won the lotto or something. All I need to do is decide to get a hybrid setup and I'm fully the saddlehunter.com cliche.

I have an Elite Ritual 30 that I purchased in '22 and I'll sit on it for a few years. Typically, I'll own a compound for 5 to 8 years, before replacing it.
I have 2 ILF recurves and that system allows me to change limbs and risers as I see fit. This versatility gives me options for different draw weights and styles of limbs and risers.

I’ve made and broken numerous self bows. I’ve yet to perfect tillering, but that will come in time. The art of making a bow and having the skill to kill mature deer at 10-20 yards is extremely seductive.

I've been playing with the idea of trying to make my own bow. But right now I'm set on upgrading my bow to a bowtech revolt xl. Maybe this summer I can start learning.
