Default Bow sling or carrier

I saw a bowsling on the a hunting show the other day and believe it or not no one mentioned the maker of the product. The one time Im interested and they have nothing about it in the credits. go figure.

Is anyone familiar with this type of sling? It had cupped ends that fit over the ecentric and wheel ends and covered the string and cable area. The sling was attached to that cover and when the archery wanted to remove it, it just slipped off. No clips, no velcro just some form of tension. Very quiet and quick. I drove down to Bass pro in IL and checked, they had nothing like it and I haven't found it in any of the catalogues

Bet you can find it at the deer and turkey expo logs. You going? Try browsing the exhibitors list. http://www.deerinfo.com/wisconsinhome.asp

Yep. I love carrying a bow with this type of sling. I showed my wife a pic and 20 minutes later she appeared out of her sewing room with one.

went to cincinnati hunting expo and ran across the one they advertise on the outdoor channel---for gun or bow.it is really a neat product.you put it over over your head and under your shoulder--it has a adj string to put ower each wheel on the end of your bow--you can carry it on your back also.you can wear it in your stand across your chest in stead of on your lap or resting it on one end while holding it up.all you do is pull your bottom string off the idler wheel or cam while grabbing it with your bow hand andsimply lower it a little bit to release the top string and you are ready to go.it cuts down on alot of movement instead of reaching for it above your head--or off a limb to your side or back and off the bow holder mounted on your platform which could easily create noise by hitting it on your stand.its a neat way to carry it up to your tree stand or even while using your climber.check out the outdoor channel if you gt access.try this adress [email protected]
