Does anyone share a bow with their wife?

[acnewman55]

I'm interested in getting into bow hunting, and hoping to get my wife into it.  However, I don't want to buy two bows.

Fortunately, we are pretty close on draw length - which got me to thinking about whether or not we could buy a single bow and share it.

I realize I'll have to compromise by dropping to a lower draw-weight than I would otherwise use in order for her to effectively use it.

So I'm wondering if anyone does it?  What bow are you using and what sort of features would be best in a bow used in this way (i.e. adjustable features).

Thanks

  I let mybwife look at it now and then? Does that count?

Sharing would be tough between draw length and getting the site set up for two to use.

I would think having to change draw length, draw weight, peep height and sight pins etc would make this practically not feasible.

I've been told the best bow to buy your wife is one that you would shoot. If at all possible I would share until you are pretty sure she is gona stick with it.

Buy two bows!  Trust me life will be better!

Ill second the two bows choice. Im assuming you are talking about compound bows, but why not buy a compound for you and a recurve with a lower draw weight that you both can use? That would save you the cost of getting two new compound bows.

I don't share with her.  Our draw lengths are way different.  She is not able to draw my bow back.  If she could draw my bow back, I sure wouldn't want to piss her off!

A little tongue in cheek there.

No offense, but this is a terrible idea. She will know when the parts attached to your bow are upgraded.
