Anyone Ever Add Pockets To SafariTuff Back Quiver?
« on: September 30, 2013, 11:38:00 AM »
I like using the Arrowmaster but would really love to have a way to carry more gear without having a separate fanny pack, etc.  

Have any of you guys modified yours so it can hold more?  If so, pictures would be great.

Thanks,
James

Not me! That is my problem - I require at lot of stuff and prefer to carry my clothes instead of wear them in so I don't sweat everything up.

What seems like a while ago now,  I emailed Rod at SafariTuff and mentioned this exact concept to him....either pouches on the quiver itself,  or the quiver strap.  Didnt hear much back.  :dunno:

I wanted to revive this again and see if I get some suggestions.

I have used the Arrowmaster for quite a while and I am contemplating getting a Cat Quiver as it has a backpack style.  My concern with the Cat Quiver is that I may not be able to use various length arrows.  As I understand it those use a friction fit and therefore judos that are shorter than broadheads will not be held in place that well.  I have also heard of guys complaining about cutting there hands when reaching for a broadhead arrow with the Cat Quiver.

So, I would like to know how to easily and comfortably carry more gear - something like the size of a Cat Quiver 3.5 - but with the benefits of the Arrowmaster.  I have tried strapping the Arrowmaster to a daypack but that makes it too vertical and not really within reach.    

Suggestions, pictures?

I clipped the bottom of mine to the waist belt.  That brought it around a little.

I use the Safari Tuff while wearing an Eberlestock pack and it works OK. I used Cat quivers for several years, and not being able to easily carry arrows of different lengths was an issue with them. I was just looking at various quivers today on the 'net, and I can't seem to find anything that works better overall than the Arrowmaster.

I carry some basics in the standard pocket on the quiver. Knife, flashlight, license, spare tab, etc.  

Have always carried a daypack in addition, but for the past year or so I've switched to one of Asbell's haversacks and love it.  I have also added a couple of short straps to the haversack so that i can carry a jacket or extra layer of clothes on my walk to the stand.  

Between the Arrowmaster pocket and the haversack I usually have more than I need.

I think the issue with adding another pocket is that it might change the center of gravity enough to allow it to slide around (down) more.  I usually have a very skinny backpack and the Arrowmaster fits right alongside it and is still very accessible.

I use a haversack hung off the other side, as Whip.
All my hunting pants have cargo pockets as well.
Sadly, there always seems to be something else that needs a place... Gear head is the term, I believe.
