Eagle's Flight Quivers
« on: November 17, 2008, 08:35:00 AM »
I bought a Eagle's Flight Quivers and I can't keep it form sliding up on the top limb. Is slips up off the broad heads. Any help on this?

That's why I've never liked a strap on quiver.
Do a search I think some guys were talking about this the other day.
Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils.

1st, make sure you clean the rubber of the quiver and the limb area really well with denatured alcohol etc. to remove any oil etc. Then, try to strap it well above the spot on the limb you want it, then rocking the quiver back and forth down the limb...it will get as tight as you want depending on where you start sliding it. If you have very narrow limbs, you may need to trim the rubber back some...you want the rubber just short of the limb width, not hanging over it when you have it strapped down.

If that doesn't work, a small pied of double-sided tape on the each side of the limb where you want it and strap it down tight.

Either of these should keep it from slipping.

ranger 3, I sent you an email. You can call me at the number that I gave. We don't have many complaints, but we're eager to help you fix it and get back to the woods.

I had the thread the other day. I fixed mine with an aluminum rob that cost me less than $3.00 at Lowes. They are making them now with a rod that holds the two ends together, but I didn't buy one this summer. I have really liked mine otherwise and now it's perfect.

I had trouble with  the bottom part slipping down.

We do make a "Totem" system where the hood and arrow gripper components are held together by an adjustable length shaft. This is a recent development and is not yet on the website. We also now have a "Talon" grip system which grips the limbs more aggressively. Both of these systems are big improvements. The original fastening system is still being used on a lot of bows today. They generally work well on most bows if they are put on properly.

We work diligently to provide technical assistance for any of our products and welcome any questions.

I had the same problems for a long time, and got all the same replies. Finaly a guy sent me a picture showing me how he got his to stop moving-

-put a rubber band on both limbs on the top side of the quiver (Top limb) bottom side (lower limb)
-tighten the quiver as tight as you can and place the quiver where you want the quiver to sit.
-then roll the top and bottom section of the
 quiver over the rubber bands.

My quiver has not moved on bit in two years

I never had a problem with the two I own. I put mine on as tight as possible above where I want to be on my bow limbs. A little liquid soap and slide that baby right down on the fadeouts where you want to be.
