How many arrows do you take in your quiver ?

How many arrows do you hunt with in your quiver on a archery elk hunt?

5

Usually only use 1.

More in the truck in case of misses or one gets lost.

As many as it holds!! mine holds 6, but I have my extras in truck in case of freak accidents. Never know when you bust your butt and mess up some arrows or all of a sudden can’t hit shit takes over.

Never heard of carrying a quiver with empty slots. Fill it up!! Mine holds 5

 

[T-Rex]

5 with more in the truck

4. Usually one of those set up for grouse or field point. I may carry a few more if backpacking in and I can't just grab more out of the truck.

5.
I shot 3 in about 40 seconds last year...all fatal hits and bull was down quickly.

Full quiver. Extra arrows/broadheads in the truck.

2 fixed, 2 mechanical, 1 blunt tip for Grouse (someday I'll see one I'm sure of it).

Five although I’m considering switching to a 7 arrow quiver. I’ve dumped the quiver of 5 twice - both times might not have been “necessary” but I’m a firm believer in overkill is underrated. Make them all count.

4 or 5 in the quiver and a couple in the truck

4 with broadheads and 2 grouse arrows- flu flus with judo points.
Extras in camp.
Can't say how many have ended up in trees; judos knock out easily, broadheads tend to stick in the truck or branches, lol.

What would cause you to reach for a fixed vs a mechanical?

4 arrows in the quiver. Have only used two arrows once. Shot a cow over a water hole at 13 yards. She jumped back 10’ and just stood there looking around like nothing happened. Right through the boiler room, I imagine she was in shock. So I shot her again through the vitals and then she took off before crashing. That was weird.

Nothing logical, just my mental process. Fixed first, mechanical for follow-up.

Quiver holds 6. I have 4 with broad heads and 2 judo points for grouse. Several spares back at camp.

For a while I had some mechanicals for followup shots at distance. Let’s say you make a good shot at 30 and the animal runs out to 90-100 and stands there. Mechanicals have less wind drift and some people are more confident at longer ranges with them.

For what it’s worth I’m all fixed now.
