Pelican 1745 AIR CASE, Bow, Black

This is a top notch bow case and the only one that I could find that fit my older and longer bow, a Hoyt 737 with two-piece quiver attached. After locking the bow in with the included hardware, the bow was locked down solid to the case and doesn't move whatsoever, as some others have indicated (not sure how movement is possible after locking down, as it is that solid). This case is overkill for me. I would like to see Pelican make a version that is the same, but without the wheels, the extra side handle, a less substantial main handle and less substantial latches for something in the $250 range. I'll likely never take this on an airplane, so those features aren't that appealing to me. However, if I ever do, I'll definitely be ready. My only complaint with regard to the other features is that the accessory bags could be a little bigger and I'd like to see a component storage box included in the main accessory area on the bow cover. But, I can add those myself so I'm not going to rate the case any less for that.

I've always wanted a Pelican bowcase, and they finally made one. I have had a SKB case for years that was great for storing both my bows. However, this case offers so much more in the way of features. It provides the room to store everything I need for my bow to include a whole tube of arrows and various tools. I was a little skeptical about the foam blocks at first. The blocks work well in tandem with the elastic straps provided to secure the bow inside the case. I would say that it is worth the price difference from other comparable cases. If you're willing to spend the extra money, this is a phenomenal case for storing and transporting your bow.

A real quality bow case, it’s expensive but not overpriced

My son got his brother a very expensive bow for Christmas and our gift to him was this case. It is absolutely perfect for storing all the bits and pieces that go along with the bow our son is very pleased with the item

I've owned many Pelican cases throughout the years of all shapes and sizes. Pelican has always exceeded the standard when it comes to protecting valuable lifesaving tools. I wouldn't trust any other company with the job of protecting my tools of the trade. Number 1 in the industry for a reason.

I appreciate the opportunity to share my experience with this product. When it arrived, I noticed a strong odor upon opening the case, which has been difficult to fully eliminate. I tried placing a box of baking soda inside for 72 hours and vacuuming it out, but the smell persists. It would be helpful if the manufacturer could address any material or packaging processes that might contribute to this issue.Additionally, the case’s interior could benefit from some improvements. The tie-down straps feel loose and flimsy, making it challenging to securely hold items in place. Each time I remove my bow, I need to re-loop the tie-downs, which becomes time-consuming, especially if you use it frequently, such as at the range. Firmer straps or a more intuitive fastening system would greatly enhance usability.Lastly, the packaging arrived in poor condition, leading me to wonder if this was a returned item. Better packaging could ensure a more positive first impression and protect the product during shipping.Overall, with some improvements in odor control, strap quality, and packaging, this case has the potential to be much more user-friendly and reliable.

Dude this is a tremendous product. I's so much better than my old case that it is ridiculous. My Hoyt RX1 is too small slightly for where they put the straps for the blocks, but it's no big deal as the tie-down straps secure the bow well and it does not move around at all. The only downside is that it's slightly heavier than I thought, but that's a small price to pay for all this quality and toughness. Very happy with this purchase even at the price

This case is ALMOST perfect. The only complaint I have is that the foam blocks that mount on the molle straps to hold the bow in place have a lot of slop. They cannot be used to reliably hold your bow in place, but that’s why they give you bungees with clips to lock everything in place. I would just like pelican to devise a way for the movable foam blocks to fit more securely once in place. Overall, really like the case and hopefully won’t be buying another for 15-20yrs.
