Testimonials

We just wrapped up our final bow shoot of the summer, and my wife and I can’t say enough about Bow Spider. It’s a company worth supporting, backed by an outstanding team and a product that delivers.

From TAC events to hikes into the tree stand, it’s become a must-have for every outing. It keeps our bows secure and accessible, so we can focus on shooting—and more importantly, on teaching our kids proper form and passing down the tradition of archery.

No matter what style of archery you practice, this system fits right in.

Five-star company. Five-star product. If you’re serious about making your time with a bow easier and more enjoyable, Bow Spider is the way to go.

A few days before archery season last fall, I received my first Bow Spider system—and it completely changed the way I hunt.

On a four-day backpack trip, I packed in with my old setup and packed out using the Bow Spider. I’ve never looked back. I’ve run it on a 7,800 cu in pack, a 2,000 cu in day pack, and everything in between. It’s versatile, secure, and works with both standard and extended straps.

As a weekend warrior with limited time, efficiency matters. The Bow Spider eliminates hassle, keeps my bow accessible, and lets me focus on the hunt—whether it’s sheep, moose, or whitetail.

I now own three. My only regret is not buying one sooner.

If you want less hassle and more time hunting, it’s time to get a Bow Spider!

I purchased a Bow Spider a while back and finally had the opportunity to run it on a hunt in Idaho this year. I truly put it to the test—and it performed flawlessly in every situation.

I covered miles of trails through timber and thick brush, even navigating some steep, cliffy terrain where having both hands free made all the difference. While the other guys were constantly carrying their bows in one hand, mine was secure and out of the way, yet quick and easy to remove when I needed it.

It also proved itself on miles of single-track dirt bike trails, handling some pretty extreme riding without issue. I couldn’t have been more impressed with how well it stayed put and performed.

I would absolutely recommend Bow Spider to any archery hunter looking for a secure, reliable, and hands-free system in the field.

I bought the Complete Bow Spider Kit at TAC in Pennsylvania, planning to use it on my Colorado elk backpack hunt—and it proved its worth immediately.

After running it through TAC in Pennsylvania and Park City, I trusted it. But Colorado sealed the deal. Twice we went off trail into steep, slick terrain chasing elk, and having both hands free was critical. Bow Spider kept my bow secure so I could safely climb without risking damage to my Hoyt.

On long hikes, I could grab water or check OnX without juggling my bow. I’ve since mounted it on my pack, my truck headrest, and even my saddle belt—no hoist rope needed.

I can’t say enough about Bow Spider. It’s now a permanent part of my system.

I’ve been bowhunting for 35 years and have seen plenty of “innovative” ideas come and go. This year, I started using Bow Spider—and honestly, I don’t know how I ever hunted without it.

I now have several: one on my pack, one in my truck, and one in my tree stand. In the truck, my bow stays secure even on the roughest roads. On my pack, I’m completely hands-free for climbing and moving through tough terrain. And in every situation, my bow is always quick and easy to access.

After more than 30 years and over 100 archery kills, I can confidently say Bow Spider is one of the most innovative advancements for the serious bowhunter.

I’ve been using Bow Spider for two years now, and it has completely changed the way I hunt.

I used to carry my bow by the string or riser for over a mile to my stand, and by the time I arrived my hand and arm were worn out. Now, I simply attach the mount to my pack, lock in my bow, and hike in hands-free. The locking system is rock solid—I never worry about it coming loose.

This is hands down one of the best products I’ve ever purchased for archery hunting. Thank you, Bow Spider!

This year I discovered Bow Spider—and it’s a game-changer.

As a backcountry bowhunter, carrying my bow on rough terrain used to be exhausting. Now I can slide it off my pack and be ready in seconds, then quickly secure it again and keep moving.

Bow Spider is hands-down a must-have for any serious hunter.

I’ve hunted from Africa to South America and everywhere in between, and I can honestly say Bow Spider has become essential gear.

I used to struggle tying my bow to my pack with bungee cords or extra straps—five minutes on, five minutes off. Bow Spider changed all that. A two-minute install lets me secure my bow in seconds and remove it just as fast.

It’s an amazing product, and I can’t wait to use it on all my hunts, including my upcoming mountain goat hunt in Alaska. Thank you, David Merrill!

My Bow Spider mount was the talk of the Broken Bow Total Archery Challenge—it was hands down the best piece of gear I brought.

I mounted the receiver on the back of my bino harness, and while hiking between targets, I honestly forgot I was even carrying my bow. It was that comfortable and secure. Everywhere I went, guys kept saying the same thing: “I’m getting one of those for next year.”

Huge thanks to the Bow Spider team for making TAC a whole lot easier on me.
