Title: Sidewinder hip quiver thoughts
Post by: shirikahn on July 01, 2013, 04:03:00 PM
have any of you used one?  What were your thoughts?  I looked around on reviews and did a search here too and didn't find anything.

Didn't like it, wouldn't stay indexed like I  wanted. I went with an Alpine Sof Lock, they make a leather hip adapter for it but I had one made just about exactly like it but half the price.. It's all me and my wife us for elk hunting, but I do use bow quiver during deer season hunting from a stand. Here is a pic of it in use during turkey season.

Cool...I like that.  I was curious because the website photos show all the different angles that can be used...I was thinking it might be a good item.  Glad to know that idexing was an issue for you...I might just put a pen to a piece of graph paper and come up with my own lol

Lot of guys swear by sidewinder, but if you wear a back pack, the indexing problem will give you clearance problems with the pack.

I thought it looked like a great idea...especially with the photos on the website showing fletch down, so it would be a quick movement to the arrow...
