Mainbowtruk Generation II

Easton has introduced the Generation II BowTruk roller bow case. An update from the original, this BowTruk was redesigned with more focus on durability and the quick access. Increased versatility was also thought of, to make the case useful for multiple different sizes of bows.

Improvements for 2023 include a fully TPU-coated exterior fabric for ultimate wear and scuff resistance. Accessory and arrow compartments are now fully accessible from the outside, making access to gear easy without having to open the main compartment. It also now comes in three sizes: 47-, 40- and 36-inch configurations to offer a solution for any archer’s needs, at virtually any size bow.

The BowTruk case concept was designed from the ground up with functionality in mind, to secure bows, arrows and archery gear. BowTruk models have a full-size main bow compartment built for full-size compound and recurve bows, and is roomy enough for additional clothing and accessories. A double seatbelt system securely anchors bows, three internal pockets keep gear organized. BowTruk's hybrid hard/soft shell offers 360-degree content protection, allowing equipment to be kept safe during airline handling and transport. Cases roll easily with heavy-duty bearing-type wheels. A handy “trailer-hitch” strap allows duffle attachment for one-handed wheeled mobility. The outer shell is made of durable, TPU-coated 1680D ballistic nylon, a material originally developed for body armor that affords excellent abrasion and tear resistance. A YKK woven-in main zipper is incorporated, for many years of reliable use.

Field Tested: Federal Heavyweight TSS

Last year, I had the pleasure of travelling to the Yucatan peninsula in search of ocellated turkey.

Read on for my thoughts on this incredibly effective shotshell.
