How do you display/store your trad bows and arrows?
« on: March 05, 2016, 08:14:00 AM »
I have a trophy room in my shop where all my deer and moose heads  and other trophies are displayed. I would like ideas on how to display my trad gear and build an arrow rack as well. I would like to see everybody else's set ups

I converted an old dresser into my storage area my archery gear. Took out all the drawers, hung hooks, and mounted old quivers to the side. It does a reasonable enough job.

I've posted variations of this picture here several times. (Depending on what bows I currently have.)  Its about the only thing I've ever built from scratch that came out the way I wanted it.    ;)

My wife won't let me display them, so I just put them in a bow sock and store them in the closet on top of the clothes rod hangers.

I made a basic board with a few shaker pegs in it then hung it in the closet. The wife doesn't want them "decorating" the house so I hung them up to be easily accessible in the closet.

Mine just sit on pegs screwed into a basement wall (also out of sight of the public per wife's request    :D   ).

Curtis,

That's a pretty good looking collection (bows and rack!).

I just ordered a PCH, so I'm anxious to add to my own bow rack!

For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

Jeff! That is WAY TOO MANY bows   :)  

If they weren't right-handers, I'd offer to take a few off your hands.
