Well when biking in to hunt I would definitely suggest a pack that has the bow carrying ability. I know some of the Elberstock have that also.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

I would use a pack.  I have been known to crash a time or two and never liked the idea of crashing with a bunch of broadheads in front of me.   :bdid:

My favorite way is on my pack. Tried it on the handlebars and the gravel roads shake it so bad its always got me worried something gonna get shaken loose, plus it just makes it a little more akward to ride the bike. My eberlestock holds it well.

I have a primos bow sling that I use, it works ok but i would like it to be secured to me better! I am going to get a pack that holds my bow.
