Yep, i can relate to the "Travel with Hardcase" observations. I got my first Bowcase for about half the Price Pelican Cases go for normally. Only Problem was it had a nice red HK Logo on it. Got some funny looks everytime i went to the range by Train...
Off topic but I think you should cover fingertab selections. Especially using the NTS method with its very specific hand positioning then the choice of finger tab becomes even more important especially for comfort.
The fines5 case * ever had was the double sided Yamaha bow case! It was made of plywood, covere.d with leatherette, lightweight, had enoughroom for EVERYTHING, inc spotting scope! The only drawback was no wheels.
Hi Jake! I'm thoroughly enjoying watching your videos and always get a little jolt of excitement when I receive a notification. At the moment I'm looking to purchase a larger case (my backpack is too small) so this video was perfect timing. Thanks for pointing out pros and cons of each!
For barebow, I have enough space in a hard case and put it in a box. All I need in the case is the riser, limbs and the arrows. I take out the button and put it in some of the foam arrow-holders. The rest of the equipment is in my checked in luggage.
I have the Win & Win case it has one main compartment instead of the foam partitions, there’s room for 2 dozen arrows in the lid and a stabiliser system, major downside is it’s pretty heavy, though I don’t fly with my archery gear, so it’s not a problem
Jake by the way, you are my hero, can you tell your personal story, your victories, your highs and lows, the price you paid, your perseverance, your motivation and the role of your coach in that, would you do it again if you could start all over? And what has it brought you? Are you happy?
Hi Jake, I travelled with soft bowcase once and it was not as long to accommodate length of arrow tube and stabilizer. Going was fine but coming back my end weight and dampener was missing. Someone had screwed it out on purpose. So I would suggest anyone buying a soft bow case to make sure it's longer to fit everything inside. Pros on able to stuff lot of things inside. Remember to pack in such a way that even if thrown from a height it should be fine. I have a skb hard case now. Ripped out all the foam and used Kaizen foam to cut as per my equipment shape including quiver and big bow stand. No place for tripod and scope though as its narrow case design. Pros, I will not have to worry about equipment damage. Took it to Vegas shoot this year and as you mentioned they brought it in as oversized luggage. But they dragged it on other side of wheels instead of rolling it, scratching the case (morons). I had taped the edges for that, still. I still love it as once I close the case I dont have to worry about anyone accidently stepping on it at tight locations where bow case storage could be an issue.
Devian Ollam says in his traveling tips, that when traveling in the US, you should drop an AR lower (which is the serialized firearm) to a hard case in order to have it declared as gun case. This way you can have a set of quality padlocks in the case, and the airport personnel won’t steal your stuff.
The amount of hoops you need to go through to do that and the extra crap they make you do isn't worth it IMHO. If you were checking in a lower, why not just throw your EDC in there?
I think Devian has some pretty expensive tools and custom electronics in his case, so having some sturdy locks might suit him well. I could imagine that in archery context that with expensive archery gear and an important competition ahead, that’s not so bad “insurance” to have, if you have time for the hassle. I think Devian doesn’t want to travel to all places with his EDC, since many places are not too friendly towards handguns, but the AR lowers are legally riffles (usually).
I have the skb 3614 case and bought it empty and then lined it with egg crate foam... Not the most clean but protective enough and gives the most space 36 is probably the biggest most portable version... The one in the link is the 42 inch version is a little long and might not fit in a typical car boot/trunk The skb is a little heavy and that is even when it is empty
I would like to see you pack them both out. As I’m going to be flying for most of my competitions next year. Also if anything changes in your packing for out of country.
I have my first competition in April so long as the college doesn't close. I used to shoot a 7.5 average with bad form (high elbow). I've fixed my form and am now all over the paper. That aside, are you going to do a video on what to expect at a competition and what to bring? I just got my first riser and am waiting to get my limbs delivered and have no idea on what to bring with me.
I've been shooting archery for a total of 8 months, only shooting barebow and i love it.... i tried my first competition (provincial) then (national) i live in Canada.. placed 6 provincially and 14 nationally.... wondering if there is anything i could do to advance myself... looking for any and all tips i could get... the only thing on my bow is a tab arrow rest.... the cheap plastic thing and im unsure what else i could do.. since i am new to this in hesitant to buy a bounce gear...
Lol, the one time I flew with guns they dumped my bag onto the regular carousel for anyone to grab. Airports are stupid. They can give me all the crap they want but I’m just gonna live my life

I guess it is kinda randomly asking but do anyone know of a good website to stream new tv shows online?
@Dax Omari I use flixzone. You can find it on google =)

Jake: Lots of people are gonna be traveling to tournaments this year
Coronavirus: I'm about to end this man's whole career
Coronavirus: 😈
Quarantine: Don’t leave your house.
People at home: I guess I’ll watch UA-cam
Me:👌

I’ve been trolling you’re videos for upgrades and getting back into shooting trad more. Thanks for all the info.
Same. He's got some invaluable info/advice. I've shot for 40 years and still learned a ton.
For barebow, I have enough space in a hard case and put it in a box. All I need in the case is the riser, limbs and the arrows. I take out the button and put it in some of the foam arrow-holders. The rest of the equipment is in my checked in luggage.
Thanks for the comparison, especially the information about the airport!

6 people are mad you called out the TSA for shenanigans.
Now I know how to do it. Case closed.
Jake by the way, you are my hero, can you tell your personal story, your victories, your highs and lows, the price you paid, your perseverance, your motivation and the role of your coach in that, would you do it again if you could start all over? And what has it brought you? Are you happy?
Can you do a video that shows you using the turkey carver and silicone spray?

So what do you prefer hard case Or soft case?

Cool seeing deviant fans in an archery page.

thanks for the product links/recommendations

Great advice for flyers! Not applicable for me as I just break balloons in my backyard.

"lots of people will be traveling to tournaments this year...."
2020: "actually, that's where you're wrong."
I was about to comment this. This video was posted a week or two before things really happened.
I have two roll-up archery bags just for going to the range.....I hate them.
A real pain when it's time to pack up the bow for a short drive.
I've been shooting archery for a total of 8 months, only shooting barebow and i love it.... i tried my first competition (provincial) then (national) i live in Canada.. placed 6 provincially and 14 nationally.... wondering if there is anything i could do to advance myself... looking for any and all tips i could get... the only thing on my bow is a tab arrow rest.... the cheap plastic thing and im unsure what else i could do.. since i am new to this in hesitant to buy a bounce gear...
Backback for me. Not flying with my bow yet ;).
I’ve stuffed mine in a bowcase before. 10/10 would recommend.
I have a 72-in recurve bow bear bow 1969 and want to get a hard case I think. Because my father passed away and I got it. can i get one or should I?
Jake, can you do one on risers and riserlength?
Anything in particular you want covered?
@@JakeKaminskiArchery advantages of 72 inch bows over 70 inch (I'm drawing 31,3 inches) how does bowength figure in barebow shooting?
Jake Kaminski I use a 25” riser and long limbs they are the correct size for me.
Would there be an advantage if l used a 27” riser and long limbs?
what size the hard case?
why can't you put the sleeve over the hard case?
what did you guys buy can guys tell me
where is youre aim spot
Bro I listened to the first few words of the video and had flashbacks jesus
What about old recurves, no takedowns
Id get a Fly fishing rod case
@@JakeKaminskiArchery ok thanks
Lol, the one time I flew with guns they dumped my bag onto the regular carousel for anyone to grab.
Airports are stupid. They can give me all the crap they want but I’m just gonna live my life
ok... hard case in country, soft case for travel.
This intro did not age well :"(
Apply to fall 2021 maybe?
