growalot Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 holder....I went to Big Lots and they had short hanging basket poles..most were the ones you press into the ground..which I'll pick up another time for my archery range...but one stood on it's own..Well I thought wouldn't that work in a ground blind...on frozen ground..or rocky for that matter...or in a blind on a platform...had 20% off so I bought it...hey a little over 11.00 if it didn't work...I'd still have a plant hanger...I had the cross bow out so tried that...it's a lot heavier than my compound....

Rev Ev Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I like it. adds a little flair than the other ones out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 It's surprisingly light...tubular aluminum....and holds the cross bow off the floor...I believe I may have to get another.for the new blinds and to have for bow turkey hunting...It will be great for the compound...

tughillhunter Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 The hook is 38in. from the floor...I think being able to move it around quickly if need be will be a plus...my raised blinds are big and have decks I use in good weather...also a good height if I'm sitting in an open blind...

Deerthug Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Nice! I would cut the hook down a bit so you won't have to lift it too high to get it off of the hook and I would put a piece of thin pipe insulation or wrap the hook with rubberized handlebar cycling tape over the hook area so it won't make noise when you go to grab your bow. Overall, great idea. I may just have to borrow your idea. . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
