No experience with the bow mount systems, but I can tell you I dropped my Sony Handycam 180x Digital zoom 25 feet from my tree stand to the ground and it bounced the other night and IT STILL WORKS go figure, I thought well thats the end of that thing. I guess it takes a licken and still keeps on ticken.

I've tryed to mess with mounting camara on my bow, but first thing noticed, too much weight added. Just think of it like this, most stabilizers weigh a few ozs., camara weighs more than a pound. Unless you have a very small camara, it's too much weight to add to a bow and not screw with your shooting form, handleing of the bow. Better to go with one of the tree mounted camara pods, in my opinion.

460.

I seen a pencil camera(for the lack of a better word)that attaches to the rim of a base ball cap and plugs into the video camera you might be better off getting one of those.

I cant remember the asking price but I am sure if you look on ebay you will find them.

I'd love to see a portable dvd recorder similar in size to a sony discman or similar, that uses a wireless digital "pencil" type camera attached to something like eyeglass frames or have a hat clip.

Especially if it was around $100 or so...
