I'd like some suggestions....
I want to mount my bow on my wall. I have it in it's case most of the time, or sittingona table. I want to put it on the wall so that I can get to it easier / faster. I'd like it to look good and be safe for my kids. What kind of mounts do you guys use for your bows?
Thanks

Look for some nice hooks with smooth edges. Some thing with the look of trees would be nice.
FWIW mine never comes into the house, or it very rarely does for a brief period. It's either locked up in a sealed room in the shop,or out in the same buildingwhere the wood stove applies it's magic, or in the wood shed. If you get my drift, yuk,yuk,yuk.

Make a "rack" of sorts.....Ummm....how to explain it....Have a base mounted to the wall w/ a decorative board attached to it....then run a dowell pin through it..you could hang 2 bows from it.
Don't know how to explain it really, and I don't have one to take a picture of....I have it in my head beautifully though.

Oh, oh......attach a 2" dowel rod to a board that is screwed to the wall....Through that 2" rod drill a hole dead center and run a 1/2" dowel through it...

Probably not what your looking for but this is my sons bedroom, i made the pegboard on the wall out of 1x4 pine with pegs cut at an angle from firring strips glued and screwed to the board and screwed to the studs in the wall, very solid. painted it olive green and made stensils and painted the camo pattern. he sometimes hangs or craddles his bow from it as well as other hunting items.
