I made my own rig which usesa screw in steps to hold it to the tree, it is very simple [kiss plan] and holds the x-bow out in front of me where standing or sitting I can pick it up at the balance point, used two light aluminium angles the bottom one stright out from the tree the top one at 45degrees down to the bottom one to support it fasten together with a #10 screw cut the angle off the ends so they can be bent to set flat againt the tree and drill holes for flat strip, I put a #10 screw and nut through the ends of the angle and the flat strip and put a hole for the screw in step at the top with enough clearance to screw it in, I split a 1 inch wood doll and put it on both sides of the end I hang the bow on and put shrink tube over it. [Hangs by the foot brace for cocking]
I mount it about 6 inches ouer my head while standing,it holds the bow right in front of me and just a little farther out than the stand. took me about half an hour to make. Lee
