Default Bow Case

Looking to pick up a Hard Bow Case for my Reign 7. I am just wondering what everyone has and what they like. I have been a soft case guy for a long time but now looking for something with a little more protection.

So let's hear what you suggest.

Here's a couple of modifications I added to my SKB SE44 case it's an older one.

I use a quicky quiver on a belt when hunting, added a 2nd quiver anchor inside
the case on the top right side.

This past fall changed up my stab to a 10" B-stinger with a quick disconnect
and attached a plastic organizer to the top center of the case to hold the stab.
Had to cut a relief hole on one end of the organizer to fit the length of the stab
also put a couple pieces of felt stick on tape to the keep the plastic from
contacting the rubber shock rings on the front of the stab.

You might find these kind of features already built in to the newer cases made
today.

Yeah I see some of the new ones have a couple different mounting options. Some good ideas though.

The Plano I have has held up and worked well over the past 10 years.

I had 2 Plano's one is really heavy and the supports weren't adjustable...I don't like it. It would be good if you are flying with it, but I don't. The other one seemed flimsy.

I actually just went to a soft case...really like it. It hold my arrow case and a few other things, rangefinder, tools, extra tips/broadheads. Basically I can just grab one thing and hit the range with everything I need. I think its called GamePlan Gear.

If I need a heavier duty/more protection I would look at the SKB with any centre supports...they always seem to get in the way when I change bows.

I run a se44 (the plainer version without the tool tray), but only because it's pretty much the only one I found that lets me leave my quiver on (2-piece quiver). Its not fancy, but it serves me well.

Cabelas soft case for everyday.

Wife's bow is in an expensive SKB which I will also use for any travel, I just have to wait until I can afford to travel via airline for a bow hunt!
