e-z hanger is the only way to do it! It puts the bow close to you and is easy to pick up from there.

I hang it on a bracket I put on my Summit Climber. If im hunting out of a lock-on I usually screw in a double hook for my bow and whatever gear I may have.

Tree-step dipped in rubberized paint.

One of the hundred or so rubber coated, $1.99 screw-in hangers that I have left in the trees in Western Kentucky. I usually pick my tree by whether or not it has a bow hanger already in it.:D

I keep my bow in my hand that way I'am always ready to shoot. No buck getting by me.

In 20+ years of bowhunting I have never hung my bow. The first 2 stands I hung this year, however, I put in those cheapy bow hangers.

If a nice buck sneaks in on me and I'm not ready, I'll just hang myself from the bow hanger. It serves 2 purposes. :D

The limb of my Oneida slides into either my front pocket when standing up or leg pocket when sitting. This supports most to all the weight of my bow.

one of those arms with the joint in the middle that lets you swing it around and make it smaller. I think it's realtree... not sure tho.

ez hanger when in my climber, or on my lap on fixed stands.

I used rubber coated screw-in hangers like ShadowAce... screw them into a branch or a tree that's close by.

Depends on the stand I'm using, where it is(single or double tree) and if I'm standing or sitting. I use everything from a holster, to a $1.99 screw in, to a bowholder bracket, to just laying it across my lap or across my handclimber. Also depends on time of day, activity going on etc etc. Sometimes I just cuddle it and whisper sweet nothings.[:o]

I just hold it if I'm on a homemade deer stand. If i'm in my climber I just rest the bow on the climbing rail.

Ez-Hanger. I use the long one. I want my bow in front of me so I dont have to turn around to get it.

RE: What do u hang your bow on?
 
I always used to lay the bow accross my lap but I found an EZ hanger and use that quite a bit. What a relief! It doesn'nt screw in that well but does work nicely.

RE: What do u hang your bow on?
 
I keep my bow in hand and laying on my lap so i'm ready to go when opportunity comes.

I keep mine in my hand the majority of the time. I did however buy an ez hanger last year. Mainly to hang my pack on, and I also use it to hang my bow on at certian times when I need both hands. I never leave it hang there for extended amounts of time....I refuse to get caught out of position.

I use a rubberized hook screw that I get at Home Depot for 50 cents.

I also got a holder this year, that I strap on my leg for when I am sitting.

I keep my bow in hand and an arrow nocked once I'm on stand and situated. When old mossy horns attempts to slip by I want to be ready!

Same here. I just don't feel "ready", if I'm not holding my weapon.

I use the Realtree EZ hanger 3 arm version. You can screw it in off to one side and it sits perfectly in front of me when I sit. If I decide to stand, all I have to do it swing it a little to my left and I have an unobstructed standing/shooting area.
