ABSTRACT:
A quick release bow rack for securing an archery bow on or within a vehicle. The bow rack includes an elongated supporting member which supports two clamps in a spaced relationship. The clamps hold the limbs of archery bow, and are spring biased toward the open position. Each clamp is held in the closed position by a latch which is pivotally attached to one of the jaws of the clamp and is capable of engaging the other jaw of the clamp. Each latch is connected to a cable which disengages the respective latch from one of the jaws of the respective clamp, when the cable is pulled. The cables connected to the latches are connected to a single pivoting lever such that pulling on the lever causes both cables to be pulled, thus allowing both clamps to spring open and allowing a bow held in the rack to be quickly removed. The present invention also includes a variety of mounting adapters for mounting the bow rack of the present invention to a variety of vehicles.
