Do you use a fletch cover for your bow quiver?

[Mr.Magoo]

I tried one last season that I made of fleece.  The problem I had was that I found it impossible to quietly remove an arrow for a second shot on a close animal.

While I use white fletch, I also use flo. orange wraps.  I like to think the orange keeps folks from thinking I'm a target.

One trick is to keep two arrows out of the cover,one on your bow and the other kind of hidden in the back by the cover so you'll have one ready to shoot quickly if you miss.

Jonathan,

I use a fletching cover with my bow quiver all the time. I prefer white cap dips and white fletchings like a lot of the guys have mentioned. I hunt ground blinds a lot and tree stands on occasion. In both situations I remove the quiver (Boa 5-arrow) and hang it upside down to keep wet weather off the feathers.

I made my own from fleece. Easiest way I found to make them is to sew a tube big enough around to fit the quiver. Then cut an oblong piece and sew it to one end. This makes an oval, flat bottomed "bag". You can hem the edge to put elastic in or use the snazzy elastic cord.

My wife, who sews things, found some cool interfacing material that you iron on the back of cloth. It makes it a little stiffer (less likely to smoosh fletchings) and a little more water resistant. I will see if I can find some pictures.

Post us some pics when you get your's done. I'm always interested in how folks make their own stuff.

Yes I use one for protection of my feathers going through brush or wet weeds in the mornings.

Yep...I use BRIGHT feathers and wraps for lots of positive reasons...and there's no way I would go to the woods without a fletch cover.  No way.

I do not want a bright flag waving around in the woods announcing my presents.  I've seen other hunters a mile away only because they didn't have a fletch cover.

I also use a bow quiver as a blind...and I sure don't want a neon sign on my blind if I have to adjust for a shot...

   

Fleece is good....and also Buck-suede is quiet and water proof as well.  Need to use one with an open bottom for ease and quiet arrow retrieval....

I also hide my second feather outside the fletch cover in the back a lot of times once I get set up....like in the pic below.

I always enjoy reading from guys that kill a lot of critters.  There certainly seems to be a pattern of successful reasons among them.

I use a fletch cover as well.
