If this isn't appropriate here, please move or remove.
I am shooting skinny arrows and have an arrow holder (bottom piece) that will accommodate them, but have the one for larger diameter arrows on the quiver.
How do I change them out without damaging either?
Here are a couple of pics.

Should be able to slide the gripper enough to remove the screw then do the same with the new one.
Thanks... I'll give that a try.
I can't get either rubber piece to move. Is there a trick to it? Lubricate or something?
Thanks.
They come out pretty hard, but they do slide out. Harder to get the one out over the screw head. Push it out so only the short side needs to clear the screw head. Try to find a hard, square surface like a table edge that you can just get the metal metal edge on and push down on the gripper with the metal edge held in place by whatever you're pushing on. Or, do it just the opposite, with the rubber gripper on the squared off hard surface. May need a small block of wood to push down on the metal channel. Good luck.
Thanks Orion... I'll give that a try in the morning.
Wayne. Go to lowes and get some small rubber "o" rings and place on gripper. I find it easier just in case I switch back and forth between carbons and POC shafts. I will shoot you an email of it if you need to see. Let me know.
Use rubbing alcohol to lube that sucker up. Just poor it on and saturate it. The alcohol will evaporate when you are done and leave you with no mess to worry about.
Wayne. Check your email for pics.
I think I'll just go with Marks idea. An "O" ring stretched between two arrow grippers effectively convert the gripper for use of small diameter arrows!
Simple and effective.
I'd sure like to see a picture of the o ring set up if either of you guys have one. Now you have me wondering about a few of my quivers. Thanks
Mark
Could you post a picture of the o-ring setup on the grippers.
Sounds like a nifty idea but I cant picture it in my small mind.
Thanks

A twisted rubber band works as well and you don't need to go to a hardware or home store to get them
John, never been real effective on posting pics here. Been having photobucket problems too. I would be glad to email you the pics. Maybe you can post them also.
I can get the pic up in a bit. I have dial up here at home... but am headed to the office. If no one else beats me to it, I'll post later.

Sorry for the quality... but I enlarged Marks pic. You can still see what has been discussed here.
Thanks Wayne. If you get the black O rings they are hardly noticable.
