Quiver issue

[Dustinb80]

Im wondering if anyone else is having this issue. I switched from the standard diameter arrow to the thinner diameter Easton Full Metal Jackets and Im having a hard time keeping them in my quiver. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I used moleskin and stuck it down in the valleys of the quiver and they snap in good and solid now. Snap your arrows in there once ya get the moleskin on and leave it set for a couple days and the moleskin will hold good after that.

Thanks for the tip.

Some quiver company's will sell smaller arrow grabbers for their quivers. I know Bohning does.

Most quiver manufacturers make quivers specifically for the thinner arrows and even replacement parts to help accommodate them as well. You may just be able to pick up the replacement rubber gripping part for your quiver.

My el cheapo Bohning quiver came with 2 sets of the plastic gripper things depending on the diameter of the arrow (one big, one small).

I had the same problem with my fmj's, just a couple rubber bands did the trick for me.

I was looking at my quiver last night wondering how I was going to get Mole Skin in their. I didn't even think of Rubber bands. Thanks.

I used the thinner moleskin like what I used on my riser. It fits pretty tight but it definitely won't let your arrows fall out. I actually laid a strip of the moleskin across the notches and just used my Axis arrows to push it down into the slot.

My quiver has a second set of notches below the larger, more standard notch. I can carry Flatlines and Axis arrows in the same quiver depending which notch they snap in to...

Could always throw your old quiver up for sale and pick up a new one LOL or better yet, get in on the box game and send it to someone!! :smiley_clap:

 

[Dustinb80]

Im in on the box game already, don't think it will get to me until around xmas tho LOL. I definitely have some things to throw in there. Ill be making the fix to the quiver this weekend. I looked at the Tight Spot quiver, a little too expensive for me right now.

Well played Sir. Well played.

I made the switch to a small cat quiver last year. Don't know if I'm sticking with it this year or not. May go back to my bolt on quiver.

I have the Alpine Soft Loc quiver and still like it and had it for many years now. The plastic back ended up cracking on it though and I replaced it with a strip of aluminum. Sometimes you have to modify things that work and for me that made it real nice and sturdy.

I too have an Alpine Soft Loc and love it!
