Title: Looking for a strung recurve carry case
Post by: bbassi on March 12, 2008, 09:02:00 AM
Opinions please. My bow is 62" with an attached quiver. Just looking for something to protect it during short trips to the range and hunting down the road without having to unstring and disassemble. I'll use a takedown case for longer trips.

I have a Kathy Kelly, that works well, 3 Rivers carries it.

Cabelas sells a longbow/recurve soft case for about $60 that works great.

This is the one I have and love it...granted all I've used it for is my longbow but it works great.  I for some reason always unstring my bow while not in use but while I was hunting I left it strung during the day.  

I like this case because you can leave your quiver on and still put it in the case with the zipper flap design.  I'm going to go string up my recurve and see how it fits.

Three rivers has a case with their own name on it as well.  I like mine.

I have a 62" Silvertip. It does not fit in the Kelly case - the distance between the string and front of the grip is too great on the Silvertip. Had to return mine (bow case, that is).

Jeff - that sucks but thanks for the info. I was ready to order one. You saved me the return shipping.

John, I looked at Keystone and didn't see what you were describing. Can you PM me a link?

I sometimes put my Bear Kodiak in the case and it's 64". So I don't know what ta tell ya. Maybe you could call 3 Rivers and get a measurement.
