RE: bow placement while on stand
 

I hold it the entire hunt. Most of the time I rest the bottom cam on my boot tip, but it's always ready to go.

D: All of the above. Depends on what stand I am using and what time of the day it is.

Always holding it, or it's on my lap. Heard too many sob stories of a buck sneaking in on the guy without him knowing it and his bow is on a hanger. No thanks. I'm shooting.

I have to get my bow out of my hands because I fiddle with it to much and make to much noise if I hold it.

RE: bow placement while on stand
 

I stand-up forthe first two hours and last two hours and I hold the bow in my hand (try to stand all day during the rut). I try as much as possible to off-set the weight of the bow on my hip (as a few have mentioned). There is a definite market fora NEW productto help with this.

When I am sitting, I hold the bow straight up and down and I too rest the bottom cam on the top of my boot.

I will occassionaly use a simple screw in bow holder and have an E-Z hanger (but don't like to carry it with me everywhere - too much added weight in my pack). Maybe I will try it more again this year.

It seems that most of the shows I watch - the guys use a bow holder on the tree.
