I'm trying to decide on a bow case, What do you guys suggest? Has to be strong enough for air travel.
Thanks
Justin

I have an ADG case and my 2and 6 year old grand kids jump on it. It also has locking latches. I got mine from swamp donkey outdoors a few years back. The only other ones that look a lot tougher would be to ones trophy book carries.

 Hands Down SKB Bow cases for travel...heavy duty tuff...so tuff in fact they have a 1000.00 or better warranty on anything in the case if it gets damaged...
If the case ever does get damaged they replace in free...outstanding customer service......
http://www.skbcases.com/sports/products.php?cat=12
But you will pay for it in the $250.00 Range in some models...but cheap insurance in the long run.
I wouldn't trust many cases when it comes to airline travel...

Thanks I checked out that site looks like a very good product. Once my bow gets here I'll check them out and see what's the best fit.

I will second the SKB cases - my bow is in my truck and I have travelled to places that would make mountain goats faint - the case is a little scuffed but the bow is mint.

Best bow case
http://www.nalpak.com/TuffpakCases
People tell me this case hands down is the best. We are about to find out. I ordered one last week for my bow. Check the weight difference of your case you are interested in getting if you plan on doing any fling.

Cost a 100.00$ to ship it. I went with the case that holds two bows. I believe all in shipped and with a name plate on the case with address ect it was close to 600.00$ tax in.

According to their website only airline rated cases offer content warranty and only to damage caused during air transport - as for product warranty depending on the model the warranty is anywhere from 1 year to lifetime
