Title: Bow Blind
Post by: joekeith on September 15, 2008, 04:13:00 PM
Have any of yas tried the Broken Branch Bow Blind ?  It just hooks into your bow quiver like an arrow.  Made of some kinda plastic over wire. I found them on that auction site under hunting blinds.  I got 2 of 'em, spring and fall.  I put one on my longbow, and the other on a curve.  They both still shot fine with no noticeable diff.  I took a couple of pics and will try to post 'em later.
 I give it a   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:   check 'em out, there only $9.99.

That's clever.  Certainly would help break up your outline.

It looks rather awkward. How heavy is it.

Does it interfere with arrow cast, or make noise when you shoot it?

It is a bit awkward, but no big deal. I think shooting with my ghilie suit on is more awkward than using this. I didn't notice any real difference in shooting either bow with it on.
 I'd say it weighs less than a real branch of the same size. I'd guess it weighs about the same as 2 hunting arrows.
 I'll put it through more shooting tests today in the woods and see how it does.  Shootin' at targets I didn't notice any real diff, other than lookin' through the opening in the leaves.
