Traditional Bow Cases (AKA Bow Socks)
Bow socks (sometimes called bow sleeves) like this selection of Bowcases to fit Longbows and Recurve Bows from Neet and Martin Archery, are about as simple as you can get, yet they provide your valuable traditional bow a high level of protection. A simple bow sock is quite easy to make for yourself (see our NZAP QuickTip on the subject) if you have access to an old pair of hunting trousers (and who doesn't) but why bother when these martin cases are so reasonabley proced and look so good.
Martin Traditional Bow Cases
The Martin Longbow Case will fit most longbows as it's overall length is seventy-eight inches (that's very close to two meters), and it is five-inches (about 7mm) wide. If this is too long for your bow simply fold back the extra and tie it off with the drawstring that is sewn into the open end. The longbow sock is made form soft-but-durable black flannel.
The Martin recurve case fits all recurve bows and is primarily designed for one-piece bows. However, it is also a great way to transport your take-down recurve when you want to leave it assembled. The recurve case is made from the same heavy-duty flannel as the longbow case but this one comes with an attractive RealTree APG como finish. The open end is secured with a flap and tie. The sixty-eight-inch length of this case will accomodate about 99 percent of the recurves ever made.
