How to keep arrows from falling out of quiver ?

A black woman's hair tie ( the insulated rubber band type) they come in several sizes and are sold by like 50 packs for dirt cheap. Carry a couple they weigh nothing and if it breaks or gets lost no biggie.

I've had similar issues with other quivers. The problem is that the rubber arrow holders are stretched out from your previous arrows.

You will need a new quiver. I have a Tightspot and a Apex Game Changer that both work great with .204 ID arrows.

I'd recommend the Tightspot if you plan on using different size arrows from time to time. It has adjustable arrow holders and is well made.

I'd recommend the Apex Game Changer if you are planning on staying with the same size arrow for years to come. I actually like it better than the Tightspot other than it doesn't have adjustable holders. It's also about half the price of the Tightspot.

I now use a long Nite Ize rubber gear tie and twist it around everything when strapping the bow on the pack. I previously had brush grab and loosen arrows on my tight spot even with the grippers tightened down and the second keeper on.

May want to consider these with an arrow(s) available to shoot immediately if needed.

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.

I do the same but without the spring keeper. Just a simple piece of 550 cord for packing in/out when I know I won’t be carrying the bow in my hand.

Bow stays in my hand 99% of the time while I’m actively hunting.

Tighten the arrow holders on the quiver, that helps a lot. It’s an allen key on the bottom. I then put a small Velcro strap around the arrows near my fletchings while packing in. Once I’m hunting I have the bow in hand and never have a problem.

I have a Tight Spot on my bow. A few years ago in Montana, I was attempting to navigate down a shale/scree slope and the rocks gave out from under me. I hit my ass off the rocks, bounced up and kind of stumbled downhill for ten yards until I regained my balance. I was holding my bow and tried to hold it up in the air as I fell. When I got to the bottom with some ripped holes and bruising on my butt, I noticed I was missing an arrow from my quiver. It came out during my fall and thankfully it didn't stick me or that might have been my last hunt. After the trip I added the secondary arrow gripper that they sell for a second point on contact on my arrows. They seem much more secure now.
