Portable bow press

[whitetailtrail]

Hey guys I'm looking for the best affordably priced bow press. I'm not looking for something like the large apple presses. I need something that can be packed in say, a large tool box. Any suggestions are appreciated lets hear of some presses!

In on this. I've been meaning to put one on my boat for while I'm bowfishing.

I have the portable one from academy. Works well when away from the house. Easy to pack and use.

I have the same one and it does what it needs to. I've used it to replace strings and install peeps. It works fine for $50+

I have a bow master and it works great.

I use the bowmaster. I feel it's the safest portable press on the market, and I've even been able to do limb swaps on most bows with it. There is a split limb adapter if you have a split limb bow.

I have a Bowmaster, and it is a really useful tool. I also picked up the split limb adapters so I can press my daughter's bow, and they work like a champ.

Spend the few extra bucks, and order thr leather storage pouch for your Bowmaster, it sure is nice having it stored neatly, and not all tangled up in your gear.

The Synunm press is gaining in popularity. It is pretty infinite, but I can't get past the price tag for such a simple concept. There are a bunch of DIY on building your own for much less.

The Bowmaster seems to be popular and definitely affordable!

If I go with the Bowmaster I'll get the leather pouch, an extra cable, and split limb adapters. I like the other press you mention but the price is a little high for me. I'm looking for this portable press until I have my own place where I can dedicate a room to all my archery and outdoors stuff. Once I'm there I'll be able to bolt down a full sized press.

i've got a bowmaster for sale in the classifieds, pm me and we can work something out. it will press solid or split limbs as long as the limbs are not beyond parallel. great for small jobs @ the house like fixing peep rotation, tying in a rest, timing issues or field repairs.

I thought about a bowmaster until I saw this. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrV7uYgT-7w"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrV7uYgT-7w[/ame]


I like the looks of the Synunm. The price for some ropes and pulleys is hard to swallow though. I can't chance the bowmaster since one of the bows I would need to press it would be impossible to get new limbs for.

If you got to Bowmasters website they don't offer that split limb adaptor. So it looks like that is a old outdated adaptor

[whitetailtrail]

I figure they have had to address that issue, correct?

Another thumbs up for the Bowmaster press. You have to purchase the adaptor separately.
It's about the same cost as the press but well worth it.
Always in the base camp box, right beside the Arizona fletcher.

They had an issue with people using the adaptor on the parallel limb design bows, they DON'T work on those limbs.
