BOW display/rack ideas
« on: January 18, 2019, 06:33:49 AM »
Ya I know it ain't rocket science.  I've seen guys use doll rods stuck in another strip of wood and what not.  I've got a bunch of antler tips I can use and thought maybe someone has a neat idea I haven't seen before.
Thanks in advance

I just hung two cedar boards vertically with a few shaker pegs in them for my bow rack.  I measured the angle of the pegs from the taper ad drilled the holes for their tennon ad a slight angle so that the top of them would be level.  I don't know if that really matters all that much in the grand scheme of things but I didn't want mt bows stored on an asymetrical peg long term.

Along the years I collected a few warthogs.

Rick,
  Is that last bow near the floor of your rack an Ace recurve by Brandon? Looks like the same profile of mine.

This is a simple rack made from reclaimed walnut with walnut dowels, finished with danish oil.

Ugly, rough black walnut slab salvaged from a local mill. I had to work it down a bunch with the belt sander to get the grain to pop. Turned out ok for a free piece of "scrap".
