Title: Low-cost takedown bow case
Post by: Rusty Snuffers on December 28, 2011, 11:48:00 AM
I'm looking for something to simply protect my takedown from scratches when I put it in the back seat or the trunk.  I know I've seen felt sock-type cases but can't remember where.  I'm not trying to break the bank either.  Suggestions?

Thanks,
Rusty

If you looking for a case when the bow is taken apart, I'd look at the Safari Tuff's, fantastic cases for the bow broken down...

If you go the diy route, it's not hard to sew up a simple case. I did mine with a couple rectangles of duck cloth and some thick batting in between to cushion it all. Add a closure (strip of leather and button in my case) and a pair of handles and you're done.

Kirk - I don't see those on your site.  Can you PM me a link (or post it here for anyone else that might be looking)?

Thanks,
Rusty
