info on the safari tuff side quiver

[Ryan Rothhaar]

I bought the Duiker model late last summer and used this last Fall/Winter and its a dandy quiver as far as I'm concerned.  After 26 years of using a bowquiver I've finally changed - I tried "Asbell type" side quivers a couple times and never liked the way they carried arrows - got in my way one way or the other.  

I did a couple of additions to my safari tuff - covered the black material that is like nylon along the seam with stick-on moleskin to further quiet a very quiet quiver.  I added a button over flap to cover the arrow hole when needed (never used this), added a quick release buckle on the strap like the bigger quiver has (never used that either).  I added a thicker foam pad contact cemented into the bottom so that I can completely bury Snuffers in the foam (good addition) - this makes the arrows a bit harder to pull, but keeps them from moving and protects the broadheads from dirt.  Never needed the rain cover, but it will come in handy someday.  With the Duiker I put in 4 big Snuffers (or 3 and a judo) and get real nice clearance.  I could stuff a few more in if needed, but I don't see a need for my use.

I didn't buy the Arrowmaster model because I pack a possibles bag and don't need the storage on the quiver, also I don't need the larger volume as I'm used to a 3 arrow bowquiver and never felt under - ammo'd with that hunting all over the US and Canada.

I'm VERY particular with my equipment, and the safari tuff is a very well designed, solidly built piece of gear.

90% of my hunting I use a bow quiver, someday I may make the switch.  That being said I use mine for 3-D shooting, stumping, and hauling my gear to the range (arrows,stringer,water,e.t.c).  Great product, well made, way handy......  DB

Thanks for all the kind comments! We shipped the first production run of the new Arrowmasters last week, which have the new quieter XD3 Camo outer shell, along with a couple small re-designs in the quiver size and shape,along with improved interior material, reinforcement ribs and a 3 point shoulder strap attachment system.....by far the best Arrowmasters ever! Taking all we learned with new materials and re-designing the Arrowmaster and applying them to the Duiker, as well!

Thank you for the update on the Arrowmaster re-design Rod! I will have to check it out and consider updating my current equipment....

I use my Arrowmaster daily on the indoor and outdoor range and hunted with it in the spring of 2011, but I still use a bow quiver for elk.

 

Thanks for making a great product!

Shoot straight, Shinken
