Double crossbow back straps

Woody Williams · Post by **Woody Williams** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 8:52 am

I 'think' it was on here that someone had two straps on their crossbow for basically wearing it in the middel of their back.

One strap had a quick release buckle that the wearer could just unsnap it and swing the crossbow off of his back to shoot.

Does someone remeber that and can point me to it?

TIA..

I'm not sure if this is what you are talking about, but The Claw Crossbow Sling does what you are describing. Here is a link to it:

ga_Game_hunter,

Nope.. that is not it.

This was a double strap just like a backpack uses with one side a quick release buckle.

awshucks,

LOL... I can see now how you would think that...." back straps"..

Woody,
I don't remember seeing that one, but it sounds like a good idea.

Maybe that was it. Looks good.

I emailed them to see if they have dealers in the states or sell direct to the states.

Has anybody on here ever seen or used one of these?

I bought one of them and thought that it was going to be the answer to carrying my Exomax but when I hooked it up and put it on, the x-bow rocked back and forth with each step and dug into the the center of my back. It didn't work out as well as I wanted it to....It may work better with heavy clothing on but I wasn't impressed with it..... Just my opinion....

That's interesting.....

I never thought about the crossbow being suspended and then being able to move back and forth.

I would still like to figure out a way to have the crossbow on my back so that I am hands free and don't have to worry about it sliding off of my shoulders.

AND, it has to be where I can get it off my back and into a shooting position quickly. This is for spot and stalk hunting.
