New Kit Case

[Big Boy Blue]

Following some additional funds obtained from the big guy in the red suit I was thinking about buying a hard bow case.

What would people recomend ?

I have been looking at the Shibuya which looks very nice but they don't say if the dimemsions are internal or external. Quicks also do a Win & Win case which would complement my Win & Win Bow nicely, but there is no information on it on either their site or Win & Wins site. So I am wondering if all my clobber would fit i.e. 30" long rod etc.

I've been using the Striker ABS Recurve case (the one with the wheels and clips rather than a zip) for the best part of a year now. It's pretty spacious - It'll hold 2 recurves, my stabilisers, 24 arrows, and a bunch of other tools I cart around - and is a very reasonable price at around the £60 mark depending where you buy it. It'll hold up to a 33" long rod or there abouts.

I was very surprised at how much bang for my buck it gave me. I'm sure some of the more expensive cases are a bit better quality. But at under £60 for a spacious hard case I don't think you can go wrong Plus if you don't spend all your cash on a case...

I have purchased one of the Striker cases recently (no wheels and zip) Found it to be quite robust & the middle flap has A multitude of pockets for all the bits & bobs we all carry about. The top will hold a dozen Arrows comfortably.

On the whole a good buy I would recommend it :icon_chee

I like the double sisded cases for my recureve equipment, the following link for bowsports shows many cases, the Shocq cases are excellent robust and will take upto 32" longrods, you will get all your tackle in one box.

As Medoc suggests, Shocq do a very good range of bowcases and very reasonably priced. Only drawback is having to cut out the foam; which isn't too much of a drawback

Have a look at: http://shocq.com/

The shibuya case is laege enough for a single recurve bow setup. It exudes quality from every angle. I should pick myself one up!

The Shocq cases are very reasonably priced, but dent very easily.

Agreed I have had this type of case for my camera kit in the past and although they are sturdy they look terrible when the surface is all damaged.

I changed to an ABS type case and its been much better.

both me and the mrs are looking at cases at the moment, and we were thinking of getting the shocq, however i read that they "dent" or "break" easily?? is that with "normal wear or troughing it about? are they a aluminum case with aluminum sides? pictures on shocq.com doesnt really show? people say they are heavy, very heavy or just heavy? i am worried becouse i live in sweden and you can´t get them here so i am buying my case next week,and its not like i can exchange it if it breaks......please help me, we would like a aluminum case that can take some blows without breaking to easy,should we still get the shocq or should we keep looking? any help would be appreciated. i know this is alot of questions but i do need answers so i don´t "waste" £60 on something

cheers

I've had my shocq case for nearly two years now with not so much as a dent!
