Whats yalls opinion on the best way to mount the bow to the atv? i have a Can Am Xmr.. I dont even have a front rack... But, when I use it for huntin I stap my tree stand to the back rack and lay my bow on top of my jacket and bungee strap it down. But, I do understand where you are coming from. Mine has what they call the LINQ's system. Which is cool and all but the run of the mill attachments wont work as they do on other ATV's.

Buddy has his mounted on bike handle bars last year and wrecked,lol. His brand new bow died! I wrecked once a couple years ago, just land on your belly and all's good.

It's the hard plastic/rubber one that doesn't have the "teeth" looking stuff on it. You turn them so the limbs are held firmly. Mine doesn't move, when I put my bow in it. 83% of all statistics are made up.
