Originally posted by Matt Quick: Every hunt I've been on that I flew I needed two bags and a carry-on. I always had a TD bow in one of the checked bags. With baggage fees these days that third bag generally costs over a $100. I just don't think it's practical anymore to fly with a one pc. If I really wanted to do a hunt with a one pc bow I'd consider shipping it up early through the mail or such before I flew with it. Plus flying with a TD recurve or longbow tucked away in a duffle doesn't draw any attention from baggage handlers that might be anti-hunters and could "accidently" send your one pc bow on a different flight

I didn't realize that I left myself with just a 1 pc. When I flew with my TDs, I could put two in a soft case stuffed in the middle of my duffle bag. My arrow box fit in there also!! That might give me an excuse to buy another bow!!! [/b]
