Description

Caret Down

The Bow Hook is a wearable D-loop bow holder that hangs your bow off your own kit, not the tree and not the bow. It cow hitches onto any loop, strap, or piece of gear you already carry with a short length of paracord, and your bow hangs straight off the D-loop. 0.2 oz. Holds up to 30 lb.

Designed by Green Beret Jake Roberts. Made in the USA. Lifetime transferable warranty. Ships next business day.

Most bow holders make you choose

Set your bow in the dirt and risk your sight, your rest, and your cams. Or carry a bulky limb-mounted stand that clamps to your bottom limbs and rides along all day. The Bow Hook does neither.

How it works

Cow hitch it to your chest rig, bino harness, belt, pack strap, or saddle, wherever it makes sense. Then hang the bow straight off your D-loop. Nothing touches the ground. Nothing bolts to your bow. Move it between setups in seconds.

Bow Hook vs Wayward Wire

The Wayward Wire hangs your bow on the tree once you are set up. The Bow Hook hangs it on you, so you can go hands free anywhere in the woods. Different jobs, and a lot of hunters carry both. The Rigging Kit includes both.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Bow Hook used for?

The Bow Hook lets you hang your bow off your own gear by the D-loop instead of setting it on the ground. It attaches to any loop or strap on your kit with a short length of paracord using a cow hitch, so you can keep your bow clean, protected, and within reach without a bulky bow stand.

How much does the Bow Hook weigh?

0.2 ounces. It is designed to replace bulkier bow-holding options without adding meaningful weight to your setup.

How does the Bow Hook attach to my gear?

It cow-hitches on with paracord. Loop the paracord around any strap, gear loop, bino harness, belt, or pack point and cinch it down. That gives you a fixed hook you can hang your bow from by the D-loop.

Is the Bow Hook a tree hanger?

No. Traditional bow hangers mount to the tree. The Bow Hook mounts to you. It rides on your own kit so your bow hangs off your body or pack, not the trunk. That makes it useful whether you are in a saddle, on the ground, or moving between setups.

Is the Bow Hook legal on public land?

Yes. Nothing screws into or damages the tree, so it is public land legal.

Who makes the Bow Hook?

The Bow Hook is designed by a Green Beret and made in the USA by Wayward Ridge, a veteran-owned hunting gear company specializing in ultralight saddle hunting and archery accessories.

Does the Bow Hook have a warranty?

Yes. Every Wayward Ridge product carries a lifetime transferable warranty. Break it and we replace it. Sell it and the warranty goes with it.
