Default Lost Alpine Quiver!

Just wanted to warn u about the Alpine quiver.Last weekend at the G.B.A (georgia bow hunters assoc.) hunting land I went hog hunting and lost my Quiver. A vine must have snag it and pulled it off. I didnt even feel it. It had 4 Goldtip camo carbone w/ 4 rockey slammer heads. It looks like the rubber latch is good for being quiet but not good for holding the quiver on. I remember it came off one morning when I was pulling it up to me on my stand. I guess its back to a locking type-And to top it off I came home with out bacon.

cost of one Alpine quiver $49.95
cost of 4 GT carbon arrows $20.00
cost of 4 Rocket heads $29.25
cost of hunting land(Donation) $25.00
cost of trip(Gas&Food)$25.00
cost of Dinner for 2 (smooth over wife) $49.95
COST OF HUNTING TRIP MEMORY-PRICELESS-( OUCH )

Total cost of Lession: $119.15
Lession Learned- DONT BUY ALPINE ARROW QUIVER & BUY BACON FROM STORE-CHEAPER

I would have done some serious backtracking. I bet Ive lost a couple of hundred dollars worth of equipment over the years myself.

Are we talking the Alpine Soft Loc? You sure that you had it locked in right? I can' t believe that a guy could pull that thing off and not feel it.

Now I have lost an arrow or two, or three, or four over the years

But never the whole gaggle of them - at once[]

See I gues my 120 dollar Mathews 2 piece " Web" quiver WAS worth the money

I feel for ya

My buddy has an Alpine and I don' t see how you wouldn' t notice it coming off. But maybe it was worn out more than his.

Hey Rack, I have never had my 2 piece fall off either. But sorry you had to pay that much for it. Mine was under 100
