RE: How many arrows do you carry to the stand?
Use to carry 6.......now my quiver holds 4, ie who needs 6? and also who needs 4? depends on my hunting style....if i'm gone all day hunting, stalking etc...say for elk, id consider taking 4.....but my usual is3.....for bowhunting whitetails....treestand, morning/afternoon.
Course I don't miss, so 2 could even work...haha, but really I dont plan to shoot at multiple animals in 1 day, but who knows a coyote may come along, I may miss, highly unlikely though....haha, but I also know have seen/heard of guys shooting the same animal with 2 arrows, so I dont put that past me either, so if I miss, I still have 2 backup arrows, or if i get a chance to shoot 1 buck with 2 arrows either way after i shoot somethign im getting out of my stand, going to the truck etc....i can restock.....

My quiver holds three so I carry three. I hunt a few hours in the morning and a few in the evening. If Ineed more than three shots then I need to take a walk back to the truck and kick myself in the a$$ doing it. Besides, since I started trophy hunting for the mythical BOOK buck I haven't taken three shots on 9 years.
