Just wanted to share how I display my Stalker Recurves. A good friend of mine built these custom portable bow stands for me.

These stands are made from a "local" mango wood.

You can even put extra pegs on the back too.

It doesn't have to be this "beefy". I just asked him to make it sturdier than my old ones, in order to add extra pegs on the back for more bows or to add "ornaments" :D

Nice, I might have to make a similar wall mount version for the man cave. Certainly helps show off your beautiful bows.
