Re: Show Me Your V-Bottom Bow Stops!
Now that you mention it...
I will have to get a pic of my bow stops, maybe tonight, but I may be looking for a better safety tie down for my bow.
Currently I have 2 safety hoops on the trailer and a 10,000# ratchet strap holding the bow eye down to the safety hoops. It's a pain to use the ratchet strap.

I seem to be the only one with this worthless POS set up 
I haven't trailered much, so I am just now noticing how bad it is 
If the ramp is not steep, and the trailer is not deep in the water the bow won't get over the top of the stop

I have modified it again by cutting the stop out and replacing it with a movable jack style that I put a impact into and spin up or down approx. 12" so it is out of the way on steep ramps. In this photo I have already cut and lowered the winch and moved it forward so the bow would not hit on steep ramps..
