It's the same design Steve. I prefer the 4 arrow myself.

The 3 arrow hood is shorter. Some broadheads such as the Wensel need to longer 4 arrow hood to be completely enclosed.

I have the three Arrow, it makes no noise when I shoot my bow, it stays in place, and it does not affect the performance it's a great little quiver, but I also would recommend the four Arrow.

IMHO, It would be hard to tell the weight difference but the plus side of the 4 is the longer hood for the longer Broadheads and the extra arrow. They are very light IMO I have enjoyed hunting with em. Easy on Easy off.  The Hood really needs to fully encase the sharp edges on the broadheads for safety reasons etc...

All you really need is one arrow and a skinnin knife. Use a 3 arrow quiver myself

We try to make a range of quivers at Eagle's Flight Archery to suit almost everyone. The goal is to keep each quiver as light as possible so as not to affect how the bow will shoot.

The 3 arrow mini is the lightest, weighing in at about 3.2 ounces. (That's about 1/3 the weight of our nearest competitor.) Other models include the 4 arrow MiniMAX, Apache, Cherokee, and Navajo which are approximately the same weight (about 4 ounce). For wide heads up to a length of 2.75 inches, there is the 4 arrow Jumbo. It weighs in around 5 ounces. For 3 inch broadheads we are testing a product now, and waiting for the results. It should be available soon.

For anyone who wants to carry only 3 arrows, but wants a larger hood, we will combine any hood with either gripper The price is determined by the hood assembly.

The weight difference is so slight between the 3 and four arrow.....and STILL very much lighter than any other quiver.....I like the 4 arrow.

Does that mean the treesharks would fit better with a 3 gripper or will the four gripper work o.k? I will send an order as soon as I find out!  :readit:

Tim Roberts called me a couple of weeks ago with an idea for the "Jumbo" bowquiver, something that we could do together. It sounded like a good idea so I sent him some leather for him to work his magic.

Wow! Did he do some magic with them. That kinda plain "Jumbo" became real classy. I won't tell any more about what he did because that will be his to show and tell.

We agreed that the guys on Tradgang will have the first opportunity to see and purchase one. I believe that you will like what you see. He said he'd probably be posting in a week or so.

Don I can't wait to see the two I just ordered. Think they'll work out really good. Ohio will be the test for them the weeknd of the 25-28.

I have the 4-arrow Jumbo, limb bolt model. It's a revelation after toting Selways & Thunderhorns around! Best bow quiver out there (unless you need those 8 arrows.....Tred  :D )

Well, I ordered the black Jumbo 4. I figured I could just carry 3 arrows if the Treesharks need extra room, and I can carry a squirrel arrow if there is enough room. Plus I can swap it from my Zipper t/d to my Dryad Bushwacker that should be here soon.
