4Bow Max Review
By Gary Yoshiyama
Number 1 - It sure is big. If you are concerned with size and need a space saving bow case, this is not for you. If you are like me and need a lot a storage space for all of your bow hunting stuff, this case will not disappoint you.
Number 2 - My diamond Rock with a quiver full of arrows fits in the box case.
Number 3 - I like the storage areas and storage box. There is also a space for an additional storage box (which I purchased and added).

4Measure your bow first
By Civilized Caveman
The description indicates the case is 44 x 24 x 9 inches at one place and 43 x 23 x 9 at another. It is the latter; I measured. But, the 23" width is the external dimension. The lip is about 0.5" wide and shaped to provide some strength. Yes, the case is made of blown plastic but that does not mean it it weak. The lip and the way the top and the bottom interlock with each other in the middle (see the pillars) strengthens it. I would not recommend to stand or sit on it, but it should adequately protect a bow that fits it properly.

Fits is properly is the important idea here. You see, of the 43" width we start with, we need to take an inch for the lip I mentioned above. Then, the sides of the case are not vertical; they tilt away from the lip to the case top/bottom some. And, you probably would want at least 1" gap, if not more, between the widest points of your bow -- the pulleys -- and the case. If not more. So, this case would be really nice for a bow that is 40" wide or less.

Mine isn't, so I must return it.

Before I ship it, I might take some pictures of my own measurements and post it; we'll see.

5Great
By Dave
I bought this case for my PSE Nova hunter 70 pound compound bow. The case has thick padding inside to protect your bow and arrows. It also has extra storage for anything from vanes to broadheads. It has three adjustable velcro straps to keep your bow tightly in place during transportation. It is worth the $40 and is made in the USA!
