A Revolutionary change in the way we store, transport and protect our archery equipment.



Description. Bowkaddy is a bow rack unlike any other. Created by a bowhunter for bowhunters, the patented design offers a host of features highlited by versatility, practicality and security.It has four main components: an octangular base, a main support arm, and two swing arms. Each part is injection-molded using high-strength plastic, combining the assets of durability, strength and lightness. Bowkaddy comes complete with all the necessary fasteners for assembly and mounting. The base plate has four holes by which Bowkaddy is mounted to a variety of surfaces. The simplicity of the base makes it adaptable to a wide array of mounting situations - wood, metal, plastic, fibreglass, etc. Typical applications are pickup boxes and cabs, quads, Argos, shop benches and display walls, to name a few. The picture at right shows the base fastened directly to a Yamaha quad rack.

Versatile. In fact, the most versatile bow rack on the market today. Fits all makes and models of bows - basic compound, recurve, traditional long AND parallel limb bows. The patented swing arms translate and rotate to match the limb geometry of your bow. The steel pins lock into the main support arm to ensure stability at the most common angular settings. When the wing nuts are tightened, two rubber washers are compressed between the arms, adding frictional resistance.Bowkaddy's true versatility comes from its numerous mounting applications. It is readily mounted to pickups, quads, display walls and workbenches...practically anywhere you desire. The 5" x 5" base allows for simple yet stable mounting to a wide variety of flat surfaces. As well, the main arm pivots in the base between three secure positions, offering the freedom to mount Bowkaddy in a vertical or horizontal orientation. See the Installation section for more mounting information.

Practical. Works great for those quick trips to the stand or the shooting range. No need to carry your bow loose inside the cab or laying in the bed of your pickup. No need to put it in a case.Now you can have the best of both worlds - protection AND accessibility! Recent tests done by the PCBA have shown that Bowkaddy can even be readily mounted on outdoor wheelchairs, providing a practical bow-handling solution to the user. During the off-season, Bowkaddy can be removed from your vehicle and fastened to your workbench to assist in any inter-seasonal "tweaking" of your archery equipment.

Secure. You can trust Bowkaddy to deliver your bow with safety and security. The rubber grips squeeze against the limbs to ensure your bow will not bounce out, even over rough terrain. And when you need your bow, removal is quick and easy.For added peace of mind, each limb clamp is molded with a hole through the end, allowing for the addition of a padlock to provide some visual deterrence against the theft of your precious archery equipment. NOTE - there is no need to use the holes for pins to keep the limbs from "popping out". The only exception to this is when Bowkaddy is mounted upside down (ie. cab mount). When the bow limbs are properly inserted, the friction between the rubber inserts and the limbs themselves will keep your bow secure until you WANT your bow to come out.

Compact. At full extension, Bowkaddy measures 35 3/4". When not in use, the swing arms can be folded in for a collapsed length of 20". As well, the swing arms and/or the main support arm can be readily detached when desired (ie. during the off season).

"I am very impressed with every aspect of Bowkaddy. If you transport your bow to and from your hunting area in a pickup or ATV, you need one of these. The setup was simple and the product is made to last. There is no doubt to say that Bowkaddy is a revolutionary change in the way we store, transport and protect our hunting equipment.

"We tried Bowkaddy on my husband's wheelchair to see if it could be used and mounted to accommodate a physically challenged archer who uses a compound bow...it was quite simple and easy to mount to his battery-powered Trax wheelchair. We have also tried it on a golf cart that we use on some of our hunts with the PCBA. Bowkaddy will be a must have for our 2006 hunts where we're transporting hunters with the golf carts, Workhorses and Gators into the field. It is a terrific product."

- Karen & Marvin Vought, PCBA, Inc. (Physically Challenged Bowhunters of America), PA

"Bowkaddy comes well packed in a sturdy shipping package, well-marked and labelled. The instructions for mounting and putting the product together were very easy with great illustrations and easy to follow directions. The product itself is extremely sturdy and felt like something I could really have an immediate confidence in...The options are limitless in what you can do and where you can mount this thing. Bowkaddy has given me an easy and classy alternative to propping my bow in the corner or hanging it from a hook. Bowkaddy looks great and is great for many applications. All in all, I'm very impressed with Bowkaddy. I think Arliss hit the nail on the head with this product."

- Patrick Gordon, Bowhunting

"I got one mounted on my four wheeler and I think that it's well worth the money. I used to carry my bow in a gun rack and it bounced all over the place. With Bowkaddy, it doesn't bounce a bit."

- Freddie Beavers, Cabot, Arkansas
