DIY 2X4 Bow Stand for the Archery Shooting Range

[@deborahpaterson584]

Thank you for this. I built one last night. I sent a picture to my son and it’s now in his Christmas list.

[@ErlefromVa]

Hope you enjoy your stand! Now go practice at your range...

[@barry7608]

Not the most stylish but very practical and its NOT PVC!! Thanks I like the idea and feel the same need when practicing. I will try and make mine out of bamboo as I am growing plenty. Your idea is the start and it can be styled to suit and I like it.

[@ErlefromVa]

Good luck and enjoy!

[@GeoffWildehawkphoto]

I like the wood versions better than the PVC, and yours is one of the VERY few in wood. I'll be borrowing the idea :) Thanks for the video.

[@ErlefromVa]

Let me know how it turns out, better yet send me a picture when it's done! Glad my vid was helpful for you & Enjoy your day at the range!

[@elissitdesign]

Holy shit this is beautiful! So many rad features. Thanks for sharing.

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks for watching enjoy

[@PonderosaSoundStudio]

Thanks so much for posting this - just built my own today, based closely on this one.

[@ErlefromVa]

Enjoy your stand!

[@jamescone6435]

i was thinking pvc but after seeing yours I'm going to make a wooden one, very nicely done.

[@ErlefromVa]

Go for it, show me a pic when your done! Didn't take long to build with a few basic tools! Thanks for stopping by and the comment!

[@CalvinsCorner72]

Cool Idea. Glade it worked for you. You know people just don't care to help themselves no more. You went above and beyond. Hey good looking Jeep too. Thanks for sharing.

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks for the Jeep comment, she's a 95 pretty much a stock 4 cylinder but she's mine and we have a relationship! Thanks also for the bow stand comments, it turned out pretty cool and should function well at the range!

[@kan-zee]

Well done...for your next build....I wanna see an R2-D2 ..LOL seriously though....this is a nice BASE Camp archery set up.

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks, appreciate your comment!

[@EnterTheDeep]

Nice caddy. I took a quick look at this video and built my take on it , actually a pair of them. I added what I thought was an original idea with the bolt to the upright part for easier travel, then I rewatched the video and saw the bolt so that was a cool moment. Great job, thanks for the video.

[@ErlefromVa]

INCREASING LAWLESSNESS Good luck and enjoy your stands

[@lukebrasseaux6159]

That set up is great. Excellent idea.

[@ErlefromVa]

Testing the Outdoors thank you

[@robf8023]

I built the same stand today brother.. Thank you for posting this.. I'll make a video or post a picture tomorrow... I couldnt find a good magnetic strip that would hold anything heavier than a nail.. I think I may drill in a rubbermaid container or use velcro and add some cool guy patches.. I also added wheels on one side so I can tilt it and roll it where I need. I also used a 4x4 for the center instead of a 2x4.. Im probably going to either stain it or camo spray paint it. Thanks again Erle

[@ErlefromVa]

If you got a Harbor Freight store near by they have the 18" magnetic strip that I used for cheap. Sounds great and glad you built your own stand! Look forward to the picture!

[@jriz6519]

Very cool, I like the idea of the magnetic strip

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks for watching and for the comment! Yeah, I like it too, just seemed like the perfect add on when I was in Harbor Freight! Works great as well for holding metal objects at arms length!

[@AmericanCoinHunting]

Cool range stand DIY project you made Erle , very nicely made .

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks Brother, something I've kept on the back burner and finally sat down and did it Thursday afternoon! Thanks for the comment!

[@daviddowd3764]

Sweet job man, great information, I have my own bow range and this will work perfectly.

[@ErlefromVa]

David Dowd Good luck building your own stand! Send a pic when done

[@starrstewart7083]

I did it with Woodprix.

[@ErlefromVa]

Really, my plans are 40 seconds in and this vid is 4 years old... so if they have plans for this they probably stole my idea! If you built one... enjoy it!

[@diggingintoyesterday400]

Good job. Turned out nice looking. Sure to come in handy

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks DIY, Turned out better then I expected or pictured in my head! Thanks for stopping by!

[@tarlwood2238]

This is perfect, making one. Thanks for the idea.

[@ErlefromVa]

Tarl Wood hope you enjoy it! Shoot away...

[@eetswaadams6171]

Bloody brilliant cheers m8 can't wait to put this beauty together

[@ErlefromVa]

Fuk MVB good luck o your build! Glad you enjoyed...

[@terrysanders2817]

Well presented!

[@ZachByrd]

Dang man! That's a really nice setup. I might have try to make one of those. I hate having to set my bow and arrows down on the ground, especially considering my kids are always trying to pick them up. Good job on the design too.

[@ErlefromVa]

Doesn't take long Zack with a few basic tools and 2 2X4's. You can pick the ladder hangers up just about anywhere. Got my hangers & magnetic strip at Harbor Freight! Thanks for watching and HH

[@ZachByrd]

No problem Erle! I was shooting yesterday and was kicking myself for not making one!

[@jakedevillier5863]

Great idea. I'll be making one soon!

[@ErlefromVa]

Doesn't take long, spruce it up as you like and enjoy!

[@Curtis7391-t8q]

Love the stand

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks for stopping by, watching my vid and leaving a comment! Your half way there, now go and build one for your self! Happy Shooting!

[@qkdraw0331]

Pretty cool Bow stand Erle! Yep, it's getting to be that time again. I just put my trail cam out tonight,the neighbor has three nice bucks on his cam,one with double brow tines,looks like a twelve and already mounting a doe, another with two main beams on one side,hopefully i can send you some pics.Nice job and take care! qkdraw

[@ErlefromVa]

Send me some pics like last year! You always have those non typicals running around! I really like the bow stand!

[@OurPalawanExperience]

That's nice!...you ought to make a couple and sell them at the shooting range or sell them to the range for them to rent out....gravy money!

[@ErlefromVa]

That does sound like a good plan, after three or four I'd have assembly down pat! Thanks for stopping in Ray!

[@ronniewilliams9365]

Great idea! I used a 4x4 for my center post but it came out really good. Thanks for the video. I'd show a pic but it won't let me.

[@ErlefromVa]

Send me a picture @ [e-mail], would love to see your stand! Congrats and hope you enjoy!

[@CrossBow206]

Dam Erle I like that, just got back from my sons hunt he took a nice 4 point muley, my hunt starts first of Sept

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks for stopping by CrossBow! Congrats to your son and good luck come Sept. Bow season here in Va. starts Oct. 1st and I got the fever already! Been wanting a bow stand for a few years, finally sat down and got it done! Like it a hole lot better then using PVC. Thanks for the comment, heck I even put a couple coats of Spar Urethane on it. Maybe it will last long enough to pass it down to my daughter one day!

[@badmommagoose5517]

Thought it was so cool I made one exactly like it! 👍

[@ErlefromVa]

PM a picture, would love to see it! Hope it works well for you! I ended up putting two or three coats of Spar Eurathane on mine for wood preservation. Looks great works great.... Hope yours does too!

[@davidschwartz2398]

You could probably sell this in kit form on ebay. Great job!

[@ErlefromVa]

I was seriously thinking about that, need storage room for supplies and SPACE to construct/ package and prep shipments! Don't see that happening any time soon! Thanks for watching however and for posting such a kind comment!

[@Ramirezja76]

I'd buy one!

[@captainjaxx3728]

Great stand,,, gonna build one for myself,,, probably add a little cedar stain, for looks, thanks for the idead..... !!!!!!

[@ErlefromVa]

Captain Jaxx your welcome, Enjoy! I ended up putting several coats of spar urethane on mine!

[@davemedler361]

Thanks for the video! My stand turned out great thanks 👍🏻

[@ErlefromVa]

Awesome, glad you made one and should last you for years! Have fun at the range!

[@davemedler361]

ErlefromVa ha ha yeah made one adjustment as I have an obscene amount of arrows lol and whacked some stain on it! Check out my instagram @lifeonthe_fly

[@ErlefromVa]

@@davemedler361 yes you have an insane amount of arrows, that's a good thing though. Loved the adjustment using tubing for the arrow rest. You made yourself a great little stand. Glad my video was usefull for ya! I ended up staining and putting spar urethane on my as well.

[@NomadicAdventuresEst2010]

that's really kool great idea

[@ErlefromVa]

Thanks Brooksy, just finished putting the second coat of Spar Urethane on it to protect it for my lifetime!

[@robf8023]

This is killer!

[@ErlefromVa]

Robert Furloni I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching! Happy shooting...

[@johnzarn3367]

Love it!!

[@stevearce1498]

Nice

[@ccerda12]

Looks like it's been awhile since you made this video. How's it holding up?

[@ErlefromVa]

ccerda12 works great and doing well. Ended up putting two or three coats of spar urethane to water proof it. Great project to put together with garage scraps and a quick trip to harbor freight

[@alankroh1111]

Sweet set up! Where you at man? I'm in Front Royal?!

[@ErlefromVa]

Winchester, sorry been having trouble getting notifications

[@alankroh1111]

Thats awesome! No worries.

[@ErlefromVa]

@@alankroh1111 Been hunting, if so Hope you've got a nice one!

[@davidhefner5668]

I'll make one for a recurve.

[@ErlefromVa]

Good luck and enjoy

[@coltonjdavis]

Do you have a list of cuts and lengths?

[@ErlefromVa]

Colton Davis key dimensions are on my drawing @ 0:40, the base I just used a 2x4 scrap and measured out as needed for a tight fit. Good luck and enjoy!

[@coltonjdavis]

ErlefromVa thanks!
