Broadheads require a thick foam or something for the broadhead and its razor sharp blades to hide in and keep anything from coming into contact with those edges. I made myself a nice quiver to clip to my side for shooting indoors and at 3D events, even out in the field using field points, but it would never do for broadheads. This story is all about the quiver to carry those extra sharp arrows in. There are reasons for the shape and mounting, but that is another story. In fact I’m going to be modifying the fletchings on my arrows of choice changing them to right helical and parabolic in shape (I have the feathers, now just need Weasel to do the mounting of them). Well, as of right now I do not have any broadheads for my arrows. Second, I have to be lucky enough to draw a tag for archery here in Utah and Third, I have to be sure I have broadheads on my arrows and a way to carry them safely in the field while hunting (a Utah law and should be a law everywhere broadhead arrow points are used). In order to do that I first have to learn to shoot a bow fairly accurately.

SQUATTYPOTTY! You have to see to believe! We in America have been going about our 'business' all wrong….Your house needs at least one of these Squatty Potty's!Īs most of you know my bucket list contains shooting a deer with a bow and arrow.

WILLOW CREEK FREE TRAPPERS GONE ON AHEAD.It looks like it is a little more roomy than mine. They are cheap and pleantiful and come in different sizes. A mountain bike inner tube will supply you with endless rubber band material. I used a spare great northern rubber arrow holder. There are strips of leather glued to the inside surface that attaches to the bow to protect the finish. I used a combination of brazing and pop rivets for construction. The “arms” are metal banding doubled up and fastened with pop rivets. My creation is from 1/8 rod and scraps of non-galvanized sheet metal.

I can put it on any bow I have and it is the quietest quiver. The reason I was thinking about changing mine to velcro is I really like a quiver that I got from 3 rivers that holds 4 arrows and attaches with the best velcro system I have seen. That screw on quiver is really cool! All wood frame? I don’t think there is really a wrong way. I hate velcro in my hunting gear….the noise it makes when ripped…arrgh. I really like the idea of using innertube instead of my strap solution. The anti-skid/protective rubber foam is from some black 2$ slippers (I use the same material for hood foam and arrow fasteners). The brackets are made of oak and the straps are from an old backpack. Here is my…wastly over-engineered strap-on base (seeing Duncans pics have made me drop this design, before I finished it). I have yet to finish the woodwork on it…and it needs some slight modifications.Īrrows are held in place by small, but powerfull magnets inside the hood (not really neccesary for it to function)īiggest problem so far is that it is quite a deal “off-centered” (far away from the bow) but its light enough to not really force a tilt. But then again gaining knowledge is the primary objective here:-) Damn you Duncan….seeing you pics makes me realise that I have gone about it the wrong way -).
