I know that a lot of guys swear by them and there’s nothing better for transporting your arrows to your blind. That’s more to get in the way and that’s more to see, especially of your arrows are brightly fletched. Not only that but from a visibility sand point, having all that baggage on your bow while you’re trying to get a shot off on something. There’s just a lot of things that get in the way. You can bump it or you can scrape it if it doesn’t sit right on your lap when the bow quiver’s on your bow. Whether your doing that or hanging it up, or whatever your doing, you have that fletchie down there. The reason is that I hold my bow on my lap a lot. I’ve always used them to get to where I’m going to hunt and to move, but I always take them off. The one thing I don’t like about them is that they’re great to get to your blind. Other people swear by them so I’m not going to base it on that. They do have bow quiver’s for compound bows that are very, very quiet. I think Jason’s argument was a little bit skewed because he was using a compound bow.
I have used a bow quiver for about three seasons now. It’s going to shoot differently with that bow quiver on it than it is without the bow quiver. When you put a bow quiver on your bow, it changes the whole tuning of your bow. Jason Albert – You also have to remember the tuning aspect. That’s to get everybody’s perspective and that’s a very interesting take on the bow quiver. They would one-hundred percent recommend the bow quiver, but this is the point of The Archer’s Roundtable. I guarantee that there are listeners and there’s guys that I run into that are 100% the other way of what you are saying. I can understand what you’re saying then. When I took my shot that quiver made so much noise that the turkey was gone before the arrow even left the bow. Somehow or another, while I was out there doing that hike, I rattled that bow and it seemed a little bit loose off the quiver. It was probably about an eight kilometer hike out to the place that I was going to be hunting. I was using a compound bow with a bow quiver. Jason Albert – Yeah, from personal experience. Ned Miller – Is that coming from personal experience? “When I took my shot that quiver made so much noise that the turkey was gone before the arrow even left the bow.” I think that they are the worst thing that anybody could do for their bows and their accuracy. I have said on the podcast’s before that I am 100% against a bow quiver. Jason Albert – A new user should avoid a bow quiver because they don’t know the basics of tuning yet. I mean, you have a back quiver, pocket quiver, side quiver, the backpack style quivers. Ned Miller – Can you touch on a little bit of a functioning standpoint. You could just put your arrows in your pocket if you wanted to, but of course the arrows would eventually poke a hole in your pocket.Ī pocket quiver is light and it get’s you out and get’s you going until you figure out exactly what quiver you want for the different situations you’ll be shooting. You just need to get out and start shooting. Jason Albert – Because when you are first starting off you don’t really need the whole kit-n-caboodle. What about function with a pocket quiver? Why is that your suggestion? Ned Miller – That’s interesting that you say that because that wouldn’t have been my first thought, but from what you are saying it makes a lot of sense. It will get you out there and get you started at a low price. I would suggest starting with a pocket quiver. I have three or four different quivers for every situation. Jason Albert – From a newbie’s perspective, I say, go with what you want. I figured that we could start off with you on the quiver topic. Jason, obviously from the name of your business, Rasher Quivers, you are heavily involved with building quivers. Quiver building, your recommendations for new archers, and your experiences with quivers so far. Source: Stick & String Adventures Podcast – Episode 28 – Archers Roundtable
