It’s a matter of personal preference and I have seen people do it in different ways. There is no right or wrong way, it is just what is comfortable to you.
Should the arrows be angled forward or backward?įirst and foremost, how you wear a hip quiver depends on what is comfortable for you. Should they wear hip quiver on the right side or left side?. The question “how to wear a hip quiver” seems simple. The fact that the arrows are near your hand and you pull them out to shoot, you put them back in when you’re done makes it very convenient. But the cheaper ones tend to do so.Īpart from that, the main reason why you see these hip quivers primarily on the shooting line is convenience. The better ones are heavier and they don’t do that. So you have to be careful with how you carry this quiver and it might be a safety issue in some places.Īdditionally, some hip rivers can be quite awkward. The fact that they protrude outwards means that you can bump into things. The main disadvantage of a hip quiver is that the arrows stick out forwards. Considering that the hip river’s normally come in multiple compartments, you can keep broken arrows in the last slot. So if you see a damaged arrow, you’ll probably detect it before you pull it out. For example, if you are marking your arrows in any way like numbering them and shooting them in a particular order then you can actually see which arrows you are shooting as well as any damage they may have visually. One you can see how many arrows you have left so it is user-friendly.Īdditionally, because you can see the arrows. Another clear advantage is that you can literally see the arrows in your quiver. So it requires the least amount of effort to pull an arrow out. The advantage of a hip quiver is that as I said earlier it is the easiest one to use.Īll your arrows are right on your side. The arrows are right in the place to pull them out with just one single motion Advantage of a Hip Quiver Using a hip quiver is the easiest thing you can do. Often the hip quivers have multiple compartments or multiple tubes to get separate arrows according to whatever system you have. This is very easy to use and probably the one that will come with your bow kit when you buy your first bow. As you wear a hip quiver on a belt, it sits along your hip. This is probably the most popular and common type of quiver. But here, we will be discussing hip quiver in detail. There are different types of arrow quivers and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Getting one is a bit of a luxury for some people but it is actually quite an important accessory. And this may be because you’re a cutting cost or perhaps the kit that you bought your bow with didn’t come with the quiver. Maybe something a little more stripped down but that will hold a score card, tab, pencil, knife, bug dope and small tool kit.Īlso, do you prefer forward or rear facing arrows? I kinda like them out the back and out of the way but worry about romping through the brushy trails on the 3D course that way.Now many people will start archery without getting a quiver. Has anyone tried it? Also the Badlands quiver looks beautiful but it is kind of the expedition pack of bow quivers. Most commercial quivers seem to be set up for wheelie bow shooters so they have a few too many pockets. 
So, I thought I would try an actual hip quiver.
I use a bow quiver for hunting and a Safari back quiver for my longbow in the field, but for shooting indoors and walking around the 3D course, I find it easier to just stick them in my pocket or side pouch where I carry my tabs, etc. I am looking for a hip quiver for indoor target and outdoor 3d shooting. I cannot find a thread on here about hip quivers so I am just going to go ahead and ask.
