if you take a couple small hose clamps like Image and link one through the other, you can attach one to your handlebars and the other can then hold any small flashlight in the needed position.

They do make lights that are designed to mount on handle bars. I'm sure there are rechargeable ones if not you could always use rechargeable AA or AAAs

I use a regular headlamp and nothing on my bike. I stash it just off the trail locked around frame and tire to a tree. Sometimes go throw big leafy ghille blanket over it.

I'm trying this for the first time this season. So with stand on your back and a bumpy ride back to the spot how are you guys carrying your bows while riding. I was thinking some kind of bow holder on the handlebars so I don't eat it on the ride back

I use atv handle bar mounts and it holds the bow good. Doesn't move around at all. I got these since a lot of guys on here recommended them. Think they were like $27 on amazon

Here are mine in action. Took these pics today on my way in. I hold onto my bow riser to steer. Actually very comfortable being more upright when riding.

Go to walmart and in the atv section they sell handle bar "accessory" holders. I had a set on my quad and they worked really good for my bow. I'm trying to convince my dad right now to give me his bike that he "uses all the time" and i'll definitely put those holders on it.
