Strap on quiver slipping off steep fades

[flyonline]

I picked up an old root/shakespeare warrior a while back and want to put my Kanati strap on quiver on it. Over time though, the bottom arrow holder starts to slip down and eventually slips off every time 

Even reefing on the straps doesn't help, the angle of the fades plus gravity and the shaking on shooting loosens it up eventually.

What options have I got? I have to pull it apart or modify it at some stage anyway as the internals (blind nut or hard plastic part) rub on the side of the limb and have lightly marked it already. It doesn't like to sit squarely to the limb either, and is skewed off at an angle - not that it really matters but if I'm going to mod it, I might as well fix it all in one go.

I've never been able to get two piece quivers to stop sliding. Very frustrating.

I now use Great Northern quivers.

I have  rubber castration bands that I slide down the limbs up tight against the straps and it stopped the quiver from moving. If you don't have them available maybe several wraps of rubber band would work  . I have the Thunder Horn quivers.

X2 on rubber bands.

I had the same problem with a Thunderhorn Boa quiver.

First I cleaned the area on the bow with a little alcohol to make sure there wasn't anything slippery on the bow (very light, very fast so it doesn't hurt the finish). Then I hit the area with string wax. I also cleaned the straps (to remove any oils or release compound from the molding process) and hit those with string wax.

Quiver stays in place now, no slipping.

I think the rubber band idea is good as well.

Little stickie side velcro above hood and below gripper....one strip cut in half narrow is all you need.

Eagles flight archery.  Half the price of most other quivers on market. Never had mine slip on any of my 8 bows.

Mine is the apache primitive around 60 bucks. Here is me in the tree stand as we speak on opening day. Also wearing their arm guard.  I've had mine for two years. I bought an extra foam insert for mine when I bought quiver still haven't needed to use it.

Sounds like a winner. I had your problem when I first went to my 2 pc. Then I got the Totem option offered by Eagles Flight and problem solved. Terry’s cure costs pennies go for it!

Thanks guys for the ideas! I'm kinda stuck with what I've got for now, no real option to change plus I don't particularly like the look of an arm on a retro style bow (says he running a clicker  )

I've got some lamb ones, but they look far too small but I'll try the rubber band trick.

I'm reluctant to start cleaning with alcohol as I've already taken a bit of finish off cleaning with alcohol to put a clicker on. A full strip and re-finish is on the cards as it's starting to haze/crack on the belly a little as well.

As above for Kieth, I'm reluctant to stick stuff on the finish as I pulled it off moving my clicker, but I might try sticking the velcro on the inside of the strap and see how that works. For the moment I've cut a wedge of medium density foam to try and square it up to the fade but I like the idea of having something in there permanently rather than falling out and going missing when I take it off!!

Thanks again, a few ideas to try.

There Great Northern quivers that each end are attached to each other might work well.

I use double sided carpet tape for many things on my bows.
It holds as good as Barge Cement and can be removed with a little fingernail scrapping.
And you cut it just big enough so that it doesn't show underneath the strap.
I use it to hold my single arrow quiver under my string tracker.

I had that issue before, lower quiver section slides down exposing sharp broadheads. I modified my Eagle flight quiver by installing a section of carbon arrow to join the upper and lower section of the quiver together.

When sheep hunting with Doug Campbell, we were going up a steep muddy hill and I slipped and started sliding down the path.  The lower strap on my two piece quiver slipped about two inches when I hit the mud, exposing four Eclipse  broad-heads that stayed in the rubber clips but were pointed in different directions.  Somehow, after knocking Doug over and sliding and rolling down the hill about thirty yards we stopped, luckily I was able to keep from impaling either of us.  Neither Doug or I were very happy.  Think that is the closest I have seen him come close to cussing.  Let’s just say it scared me enough I sat right there in the mud and used my leatherman to punch a hole in the hood, tie 550 cord to the hood, then tie the other end to the rubber grippers to keep them from sliding apart.  Sold all my two piece quivers when I got home, bought another great northern, and have never regretted it.

I see a lot of bad-aids being recommended for a bad design. 

Some things just work better, and are safer, then others.

I hear you Walt, that's while I came up with the Velcro..... I've had that happen to me several times..... And it hasn't happened since.

[Badlands]

Double sided tape didn't work for me.
I finally got tired of it and just wrapped a couple wraps of black electrical tape around the limb and haven't had a problem since.  That particular bow has black limbs so it's no big deal.

[Gooserbat]

Get a Thunderhorn Lynx or Great Northern.  Personally I prefer the Lynx but both are good.

Put some vet wrap around riser. Install quiver over the vet wrap. Solid, will not slip. Works well with any strap on quiver. Easily replaced. Comes in a variety of  colors if you care.

My Widow PSR has steep sloping fades and the bottom part of the quiver can move down the limb. I have gotten used to it and every few shots I check it. Quiver is very light and makes it worth the bother.

Biggest reason I’m a great northern fan. I know here when it gets cold rubber gets a memory
