Author Topic: Another Mouse Trap (Arrow Holder) Added Step By Step Instructions. WhiteOaks Trad Bowhunter Member # 1791 posted                     I've been thinking about a better way to make an arrow holder for when I'm on stand. I like the idea of the rubber band and pin but I didn't like the idea of drilling a hole in my bow. I got the idea today to try an ordinary safety pin. I cut off the sharp end and bent it straight. I then bent the loop to conform with the bow and taped it to the side of my bow with velcro. The loop holds the rubber band to use over and over and the band slips nicely off the pin when drawn. Simple, Neat, and Cheap. Posts: 648 | From: Savannah GA | Registered: Oct 2003  |  IP: Logged |  David Yukon Trad Bowhunter Member # 25381 posted                     Nice! I don,t need it, but realy nice!! Thank you for sharing Posts: 1404 | From: Canada, Yukon | Registered: Oct 2010  |  IP: Logged |  Earl E. Nov...mber Trad Bowhunter Member # 690 posted                     For years I used a popsicle stick and two rubber bands. One to hold the stick on the bow, the other to hold the arrow. -------------------- Many have died for my freedom. One has died for my soul. Posts: 1962 | From: Nebraska | Registered: Apr 2003  |  IP: Logged |  3Under Contributor 2007 Member # 1713 posted                     I used a dowel once, with the contour of the riser shaped in into the dowel. I used double sticky foam tape to attach dowel to the riser. The rubber band was attached at the "back side" of the riser end of the dowel.The rubber band was then streched over the arrow to the dowel on the "belly side" of the dowel. It isn't clear to me how the rubber band comes off the arrow while drawing the arrow on your set up. I do like the simplicty of the holder though.

Pops off the arrow as soon as you start to draw.

I haven't had any clicking the way it is but a little velcro just in case never hurts. Posts: 648 | From: Savannah GA | Registered: Oct 2003  |  IP: Logged |  jax Trad Bowhunter Member # 22179 posted                     Why not just use the commercial ones? They work great and are quiet Posts: 137 | From: WV | Registered: Dec 2009  |  IP: Logged |  WhiteOaks Trad Bowhunter Member # 1791 posted                     They don't work well for me with skinny arrows. I've lost several arrows on stand with those things. These just work better for my way of doing it. Plus I have 12 bows. For $3 bucks I have a lifetime supply of pins and bands.

The pack I have are 2 in. Good Luck. I made up 12. One for every bow. Posts: 648 | From: Savannah GA | Registered: Oct 2003  |  IP: Logged |  3Under Contributor 2007 Member # 1713 posted                     Would you mind showing a photo of one finished ready to mount on the bow? Posts: 602 | From: Central Kentucky | Registered: Sep 2003  |  IP: Logged |  jax Trad Bowhunter Member # 22179 posted                     I use easton axis and the commercial one I use works fine. But I only have one bw. I see what you mean Posts: 137 | From: WV | Registered: Dec 2009  |  IP: Logged |  WhiteOaks Trad Bowhunter Member # 1791 posted                     I'll post a sequence of pics showing every bend to make the final product. Parts Bend Pin straight. Bend circle 90 degrees Bend Pin straight again Cut off sharp end Add band to circle Finished and ready to tape on bow.
