Title: Hard bow case recommendations
Post by: mburrows on February 16, 2020, 01:20:50 PM

My plano case had all 4 latches break off over the course of the last 3 years. Originally purchased that case in 2012. Any recommendations on sub $200 cases other than plano?

I have the pelican air....it was amazing how much it got dinged up by the airlines and was glad I paid the extra coin for it

extra SKB case was sold. Rec'd more $ than listed for above.

as for new Pelican Air bow case, partner had one wheel break off on recent trip thru airport. Pelican Case scratched to heck too, darn airport baggage conveyors behind the scenes. AND it's only been thru one season of air travel so far.

still happy with my SKB case, been thru airline handling hell the last 5 years and no problems with latch or any external exposed parts.
