Interesting but do your regulations state what kind of case?
I know I've taken my Bow into my standsites well over 90mins. before shooting light in a soft case simply to protect it better on the way in.
I just tie the pull rope to the handles when I get there. I make sure it's well sprayed with scent-away and on occassion I've used the case as a seat cushion!
I get there early especially when hunting public land and use the other later arriving hunters to push deer towards me when they enter the woods!
Just a soft case as you described is all that is required. I believe it has to be fully closed as well. You know, no open ended, sheet cases with a rock sewn in the other end for quick removal for the quick draw types![:-]
