Why the Kwik Stand Tri-Pod Matters
A bow lying on the ground risks scratches, dirt buildup, and cam damage. The Kwik Stand Tri-Pod supports the bow securely, creating a stable three-point stance that keeps the bow upright—ideal for indoor ranges, backyard practice, and 3D tournaments. It's also lightweight and compatible with both right-handed and left-handed setups.
For even more convenience, pair it with NITRO accessories like vanes, arrow wraps, and stabilizers from Pine Ridge Archery.
Step-By-Step: Setting Up the Kwik Stand Tri-Pod Leg
1. Remove the Existing Bolt
Start by removing the short socket head bolt from your Kwik Stand.
You'll need:
-
An 8" Allen head wrench
-
A Phillips screwdriver
Loosen and remove the bolt (0:19–0:32).
2. Remove the Barrel Bolt
Use the Allen wrench to push out the barrel bolt from the hole. You’ll reuse this hardware (0:38–0:45).
3. Attach the L-Shaped Bracket
Insert the barrel bolt through the hole in the supplied L-shaped bracket (0:47–0:54).
4. Insert the Bracket Into the Kwik Stand
Push the bracket and barrel bolt into the non-spring side of the stand (0:57–1:01).
5. Secure With the Longer Bolt
From the spring side, insert the longer bolt with a lock washer. Tighten it using the Allen wrench while holding the Phillips head screw (1:05–1:33).
6. Attach the Tripod Leg
Align the teeth of the tripod leg with the bracket teeth, then tighten the knob to secure it (1:46–2:22).
If you're assembling a full bow setup, consider adding high-visibility NITRO Arrow Wraps from Pine Ridge Archery to make arrow recovery and tracking easier.
How to Use the Kwik Stand Tri-Pod
Adjust the Jaws
Adjust the jaws and top bolts for your bow’s limb width and thickness. This ensures a snug, secure fit (2:28–2:40).
Removing Your Bow
Loosen the knob and drop the tripod leg out of the way before removing the stand from your bow (2:45–2:52).
Reattaching the Bow
Reverse the process:
Attach the Kwik Stand to the bow → swing the leg up → tighten the knob (2:54–3:03).
Left-Handed or Right-Handed Setup
The Tri-Pod works for both left- and right-handed shooters. Just flip the stand so the trough aligns correctly (3:06–3:22).
Protection and Stability
Once set up, the Kwik Stand Tri-Pod keeps your bow upright and protects the cam while you shoot (3:25–3:29).
For full bow protection and performance, complement your stand with stabilizers, wrist slings, and peep sights from Pine Ridge Archery.
