Abstract
Abstract A bow carrying device which is adapted to be worn on the body of an archer and used to carry the archer's bow adjacent the body in a hands free manner includes a first strap assembly and a second strap assembly. The first strap assembly is adapted to be removably mounted at one end on the bow frame. The second strap assembly is adapted to be anchored by a loop formed at one end on a shoulder of the archer, extend around the top of the back of the archer and then extend down on the front of the archer on the side opposite the shoulder to which it is anchored. Complementary portions of a quick release fastener are mounted on each one of the strap assemblies so that the bow can be easily detached from the second strap member when desired. The bow need not be detached from the second strap assembly to make a shot. The second strap assembly is adjustable in length and also in the size of the anchor loop so as to accommodate different sized archers.
