i just got a bow holder for mine as well. the kind you clamp on to your stand. i always envisioned it clamping on to the lower part of my climber put i ended up putting it on the upper. it's very nice not to have the bow in your lap, i wish i had done it sooner. i've never really condidered a footrest cause the stand i so comfortable to begin with, but it's nice eh. maybe i should give that a run too.
