Default I want a bow vise

I am starting to tune my own stuff and need a new bow vise and would like any suggestions for a good/affordable one preferably made in the U.S.A that will accomodate a parallell limb bow. I was looking at the Apple vise in Cabelas but did not know if it is good compared to the others. Thanks

I use Apple vises both at work and home and like them a lot. They work well.

Apple makes a good vise.

RS Archery makes a Bow vise and it is a few more $$ but was a good investment for me.

I have the apple-like vise from bowhunters superstore, and so far I am pleased. It's fairly simplistic, and there are other vises that offer more adjustability and precision (like three axis micro adjust), but this one suits me just fine. Can't beat the price either.
