You sound like me packing for an event!  Since you brought it 
up it would appear my last transport (the second back-up)  just 
bailed for BAM.  If I don't make it you guys have a great time 
storming the castle!

See, I'll be completely packed for an event, see another bow, or set of arrows and figure. Hey, I should bring more. I have been known to bring 6 or more bows alone to a 3 day event, just in case I get bored with any of them.
 
 
Here I sit, thinking that I don't have enough combat arrows for this weekend at BAM. I've got 80 ish in one suitcase with the bulk of my armor. Another 30 will go in the second bag, with my target bow and arrows. I've got 11 of my good set, but "just in case" I'm bringing stuff to finish of the newest dozen. 
 
Maybe I should bring a spare bow too...

Well obviously you didn't bring enough missiles!  Been there, done 
that one, more times then I want to remember.  But GW's ravine 
battle is kinda a special case, there's not too many battles where 
600+ missiles aren't enough to carry a combat archer through the 
melee, thank god!
 
Ya know in hindsight I do kinda miss those melees, sorta.

PS: I'd take three dozen Vincenti, just to be sure!

Well the Ravine battle at Gulf Wars would be an exception to that.

Vincenti, figure12 at the minimum with 24 covering what you will most likely need on the high end.  Just remember to change your point of aim when wearing a helm or fencing mask.

you are when ya run out of missiles!

Traditionally, but not always, the Royal Huntsman Tournament does include some IKCAC style archery that will require you to have a legal combat bow, legal combat ammo, legal combat head protection, and legal combat hand protection.  So always come prepared.

It could very well be a Sudden Death type of scenario where ya need as many pieces of ammo as it takes for you to eliminate your opponent.

My gut tells me  that if we placed an upper limit on the number of arrows an archer could have in his quiver that I would set it at 24.  That is because I read so many period texts that say that an archer was expected to carry with him 2 sheafs of arrows.
