homemade replacement foam for gn quivers
« on: December 10, 2012, 02:03:00 AM »
the foam on mine is giving out and I dont feel like dishing out 8$ for a piece of foam even though it is highgrade stuff, I'm sure im not the only who feels like this lol.

Anywho I'm wondering if you guys have any tricks for making your own foam replacement pads, I'm thinking something up along the lines of one of those pool noodles.

What do you guys think?

Yoga blocks work great. You can get at least 4 per block. 2 blocks cost 10$ at wallyworld

Yoga Blocks are the ticket....They are also just the right size to fill in that Kill zone on a 3-D deer target..Just use plumbers goop or shoe goop to help hold it in...

Ive made serveral inserts from an old Yellow jacket broad head target. I just cut the corners off where it wasnt shot up. It has woked better than the original quiver foam.

How do you guys cut those yoga blocks to the right size of the quiver hood? I might have to try this.

A good filet knife should work
