Pj. Hit the search icon and you will find all kinds of pics. Careful you'll be in the shop shortly afterward.

Keeping the Faith!

I don't have pics yet, but what I started doing was building individual racks out of the same wood as the riser of the bow. Ziricote, cocobolo, bubinga, some really nice boards to match the bows. I was using antler tines screwed on as the bow rests, but then went crazier and started using the hooves of game taken with that particular bow as the bow "cradle". I get bored here in winter waiting for the ice to be safe

I didn't make this one, but this is mine and I really like it.

Love the whitetail Stinger, I love those upward sweeping racks. I have a couple of those style bow racks too, very nice..looks like a very "ugly" Zipper nestled in there!

Here are two pics of a vertical bow rack I made last year.  I like this design because of how much space it saves.

This is mine. I didn't make it. I bought it online from Craft Wood Racks.

I'm thinking to go vertical to save space.
