A float apparatus for preventing the loss of a bow accidentally dropped in a body of water, the apparatus including a hydrostatic valve, a camshaft, a plunger, a gas cartridge and a bladder, all of which are operatively coupled to one another by a valve frame contained within a housing. When a bow having the float apparatus attached thereto is submerged, the hydrostatic valve automatically rotates the camshaft when the float apparatus reaches a desired depth. As the camshaft rotates, it presses against the plunger causing it to pierce the gas cartridge thereby releasing a gas. The gas is then directed through the valve frame into the bladder thereby inflating the bladder and causing the bow to float.
