I have a nice bow case but its over 100 dollars. Its made by lakewood products and its a bow file. It has a place to slide your bow in on the top and a place for your arrows. You can also buy accesories for it like accesory holders and other arrow holders. It also comes with shoulder straps. It zips shut on the top. You probably could just go on www.lakewoodproducts.com website and see it.

I have the plano one in your second link. I like it. Holds my bow with the quiver still on it and extra arrows in the lid. Its foam padded also. I got mine at a local sporting goods store on sale for $20. If your just looking for one to put your bow in at home, or while your travleing in your truck, this one works for me. But I wouldnt use it to put it on a plane.... I would want something hard sided for flying.

My bow is 3 feet long and fits great. I still have room on both ends.

i have a plano one like your second link and it is perfect. there is no need to spend that much money on a bow case when there are thos plano ones for cheap. i have never had problems with it at all and it keeps my bow in there nice and tight.

I would suggest the plano bow guard pro 44.
