How do you guys secure your arrows in there while hinting? Do you just jab them in the foam? If so does this dull them excessively? Do you cut slots for them? If you jab do you randomly jab or do you return them to the same spot in the foam? Thanks Guys
I laid mine out evenly spaced and cut the three blade slots with an old BH. When hunting I just slide them in place firmly.

It's not an issue. Just put them in and press down.
I just lightly stab the points of my broadheads into the foam--worked fine for me in CO, NM, MS, SC, GA, etc.
Maybe Denny Sturgis Jr. will chime in--he's hunted more places/terrain than most ever will, with an Arrowmaster.
'Course you could also e-mail Rod and ask him what he suggests.
I push my broadheads as far into the foam as they will go. It doesn't seem to dull any heads I have tried. I suppose it you had a head with super soft steel it could dull it but even then it would probably not be much.

What he said....non-issue.
Thanks for this post. I've been concidering getting one, and had questions too.
Best quiver you will ever use for everything.Again no issue.
Is there much difference between the new model and the older models? The add seemed to say the newer model is much improved. Thanks, Roy

I considered it and eventually dropped the coin and got one ... once I got it I wished not only that I hadn't waited but that Rod had bought it 25 years ago .
Without doubt the best , most versatile and hunter friendly quiver I have ever had the pleasure of using .
Im looking desperately for a Predator spring green model but they are no longer made. Very nice quivers.
Thanks Guys. I am getting ready to leave and I must be getting nervous.
Great timing! I just got one this week, and was wondering if that was going to be an issue. Thanks.
"Is there much difference between the new model and the older models?"
Some small improvements and a different camo material. I honestly can't remember the details--I have an older one and a new one, but haven't had a chance to give the new one a try yet. I couldn't find any faults with the old one, but Rod is never satisfied with "good enuff".
Thanks LBR, guess I will order a new one as the fabric may wear with a used one, Roy
I am using a Safari Tuff Duiker for this years elk hunt,leaving Friday by the way.I believe it is the same as the arrowmaster without the pocket.I just push broadheads into foam no problems with broadheads dulling or arrows rattling.I am really liking this quiver.Very well made
Thanks for the kind words! No issues with broadheads becoming dull from being inserted into the foam...at least not with the broadheads ive used! The new black foam is much more durable.
The new Arrowmasters have two full length reinforcing ribs, Quieter Amerisuede camo material, 3 pt connection shoulder straps to help eliminate quiver movement, and a re-designed general shape and arrow slot....that along with new edge binding material, makes the latest Arrowmaster's by far the best we have produced :)
I like 'em so much that I have 4 !!!
I need to get me one of 'em upgraded Arrowmasters Rod!
Still got my original Arrowmaster which I installed a reinforcing "rib" in to keep it from collapsing.
I use it almost daily either shooting at targets or huntin'/stumpin' in the woods. It is a great product!
Keep the wind in your face!
Shoot straight, Shinken

Last night while getting all my gear together I hooked my duiker to my Kifaru pack,There is alot of straps on my pack and the way I hooked it on is going to work great.Cant waite to get to Colorado on Friday I am ready.
Rods new design is built VERY VERY WELL! It feels put together as well as my maxpedition military grade backpacks. Which, ironically, are built better than the packs i carried in the military. The stitching is sturdy and the pack is rigid but with touch of give that makes it ride nicely. The material is top notch. If it came in ASAT or Predator, that would be the icing. Can't go wrong with this product, no sir.

Theres only a handfull of the Arrowmasters in Predator Green!
Thanks Todd....most of our materials are now mil-spec..and always built for the tuffest places on earth.
Suitable material isn't available in ASAT and Predator Bucksuede is now being produced in China...Im very pleased with the current XD3 material and I believe most users will be very pleased with the new material....in fact I'll soon have Arrowmaster and Duikers available in snow camo!
Here is something you can do with your arrowmaster. You can attach a little haver bag and it hangs just at the right spot. The pack on the picture is a Maxpedition FR1 clam shell opening pack. It holds a lot of little things. Including a Butt Out. Currently this a medical kit in the pic. Another great reason to get an Arrowmaster .
