easy fix for sliding back quiver

[dinorocks]

I was out shooting with my son yesterday and stumbled upon a simple way to keep the arrows in my back quiver easily accessible (i.e., my quiver sometimes slides too far down my back for me to quickly reach arrows)...I'm sure I'm not the first to come up with this but wanted to share it with you anyway...

I use a small metal binder clip (for clipping papers together) to hold the quiver strap to the front of my jacket...with the strap securely "pinned" to the front of my jacket, the quiver doesn't slide out of my reach.

Hope this helps...so far it seems to work for me!

Have a good hunting season!

Ok, Thanks for sharing!!!

However...Why would you want to "prevent" the quiver from sliding down your back??? This is actualy what helps keep your arrows frow getting hung up on brush and such when waking through the woods.

Actualy, experianced backquiver hunters use a combination "sideways" bowarm forward "sneek"... and the "backquiver bump". When walking through cover, you angle your body sideways,bow arm forward, with the fletching of your arrows low behind your string hand shoulder. This pretty much eliminates your arrows getting hung up. If you need to reach an arrow in your quiver, you do the backquiver "bump"... Take the elbow of your bow arm, and gently "bump" or push the bottom of your quiver, up behind and around your back. This will put the fletching of your arrows right up over your shoulder, beside your head, and in easy reach!!!

It takes alittle practice... but is very easy to learn!!!!! Soon you will be using your back quiver like it has been a part of your body all your life!!!

Good Luck!!! Shoot Straight!!!!!
