Does anyone here have any experience with the fred bear custom recurve quiver?
I waited for one that was on backorder for 3 months.Got it today and installed it on my bear grizzly.I filled it up with arrows and went to trhe yard.It doesn't affect my accuracy any but wow does it make a lot of noise.Any suggestions on how to quiet it down?
Wrong forum....I'm moving it to the PowWow.
You must first check for any loose parts. Anything that's the least bit loose will cause some noise... I use Locktite on all screws.
Make sure you have feather clearance and point clearance (if you loaded it with broadheads).
Put a piece of felt, thin leather or rubber between the bow and the attachment points... snug it down real good. The screws provided work loose easilly. I replaced them with bolts and lock washers.
I took some cheap WalMart yarn and wrapped around the square center post from hood to holder and that helped a lot.
Thanks again Charlie,
I noticed that I had to turn the arrows so the feathers ween't in close proximity that cured a lot of it.
While I'm waiting on my two new strings I'll find some felt or rubber and do the yarn trick,sounds like that will dampen some vibration.
Let us know how it works out... it's a great quiver! :thumbsup:
