I have a Tightspot 5 arrow quiver. All the arrows stay in place under "normal" conditions. When Archery Elk hunting it seems we always get caught in some thick nasty stuff to get thru. My bow is normally on my pack when we are going thru that stuff because I need both hands free sometimes. I know the best solution is to just not go thru that thick stuff but sometimes its unavoidable. I have lost a couple arrows doing this. Has anyone came up with a strap or something to secure your arrows so they don't get yanked out of the quiver?
 
One strap from my pack goes over the fletched half of the arrows when I strap it to my pack. But thats generally reserved for hiking and bike riding. In the woods its almost always in my hand. In thick stuff, fetchings face backwards to prevent getting grabbed and removed from the quiver.
 
Never tried to strap the bow to the pack with the arrows against the pack. I'll have to try that out before my hunt this year.
Yes i have a second gripper on the Tightspot.
 
My quiver has a rubber strap on it. Best thing out there. I can't tell you how many times my partner has to go back up hill looking for arrows in the oak brush. He ended up making one for his problem solved. Also funny how many single arrows you find in the woods just laying their point up or down not shot.

I made a simple tie with 550 and a spring keeper. I only use it when it’s on my pack. Works perfectly. Tightening the arrow keepers only makes it hard to put them in and take them out. They still come out without something else helping.

Where do you order the spring keeper? Couldn't find it thru google.
 
I took a piece of shock cord and added a retaining strap for my arrows .
Threads thru one end of the gripper over the arrows and attached to the other end.
