Self-adhesive velcro that you can get strips of at the local sewing/material store. No problem with wear on arrows. Works good.

As far as the Velcro, which side is best???

The Hook Side, or the Fuzzy Side????

I'm thinking of trying it myself...

Shawn, where do you find industrial velcro? I'm currently using seal skin and it's showing some wear.

Craft stores around my way usually have quite a fine selection of velcro.

What Shawn said.  Industrial strength velcro.  It's available at Wally World and it wears like iron.
