Default RE: Bow Sling/Carrier

ORIGINAL: Greg / MO

I've toyed around with the idea of getting a Primos sling for a long time... I would love to not have to hold my bow on the long treks in to my stand; the problem is, my shoulders are usually taken up because of my stand on my back.

I've tried to sling a backpack over my shoulders when I'm packing my stand in, and I've found that usually one strap at a time is enough over them.

(Before anyone makes a smart-alecky remark, I've got a 33" waist and a 44" chest and can bench around 240... not bad for someone weighing 180; I don't think my shoulders being too small is the problem... )
I keep my primos sling straps short and I carry the strap in my hand and not over my shoulder. Like I said, these are a great item for raising and lowering your bow to the ground and as stated perfect for leaving the woods in the dark. The sling stuffs into one of it's pocket ends and is very compact and weighs only a couple of ounces. This is one of those "how did I live without this" once you own one.HCH
