Title: Getting a BOA quiver quiet
Post by: huntin_sparty on June 07, 2010, 01:23:00 PM
In getting ready for season I just put my quiver on the bow to start shooting with it for the season.  It makes a quiet bow noisy.  Ive tried moving in different spots and angles still noisy!  Anyone do anything different to get it quiet?
THanks

They always seem to quieten down any bow I have used them on.   :confused:  Make sure it is mounted on the thick part of the fades instead of out on the limb.Sounds like you must be putting it on a moving part of the limb.jmo

Yaa try and move it down.Try and pull the straps one hole tighter.I use a vice grip sometimes to get a grip and pull it to the shorter hole.

Hopefully you have grippers that are tight enough to hold your arrows snugly.Carbon aroows in the grippers made for 11/32 shafts wont be as snug.

Make sure the allen screws are tight that hold the hood and grippers to your strap assembly are snug.

Other than that make sure you have clearance between your feathers so they dont rattle or brush together when bows shot.

sometimes a loose field tip or screw in broadhead will rattle or make a tink noice when bows shot.So check those incase.

Everything steelhead said is good advice.  I love my boa quiver, it made my bow even more quiet.

Yep....I've had that happen as well on certain bows....I just could not get them quiet.  They were the strap ons.  Heck if I know.

I love em to, and I still use them on many of my bows....but there ARE exeptions for some reason, I just don't know that reason.

Tuck in the flap of rubber from the strap. It make a slapping noisr if it's too long.
