Back quiver ?
« on: April 17, 2010, 01:40:00 PM »
Hope someone can help me with this.
I have a new back quiver and am having a really hard time reaching back and pulling arrows out of it and putting them back in.
Are there any tricks to help with this?
I am wearing it sort of angled across the back with arrows over right shoulder.

Thanks.
John

sounds like it may be sitting too low on your back, try moving it up a little more and maybe adding a place to anchor it to your belt if you can. also is it soft or stiff?

i have a fox hide back quiver thats soft and returning arrows i use my thumb just below the tip of the arrow to index the mouth of the quiver and drop em straight in. this quiver sits perfectly with the mouth right at the top of my shoulder though.

Remeber to push up the quiver with your left hand so you can put or pull arrows with your right hand.

Thanks all you guys for the good information.
You were all right on with the info.
I made a few adjustments to the straps and fit, put it on and made a few practice draws in front of the mirror and went out to shoot.Low and behold I think I am going to like this back quiver now.

Thanks
John
