SAS Adjustable Archery Arrow Case Carrier with Strap

We recently got back into archery after lapsing for several years. We set up a bale target in our very large backyard and are just doing target shooting. I wanted something to hold and carry the arrows and this is great! The price was exactly what I wanted to spend - and the functionality is perfect. My 19 year old son uses it as a back quiver and it works well. He's tall - 6 ft. - and it fits perfectly on his back. I wanted something that would stay rigid and hold up to being set down in wet grass in early morning, and this fits the bill nicely. We also like the adjustable feature on the quiver itself. Cheap, sturdy, and functional with an adjustable strap - perfect!

NOISE: I don't know how this will work for those walking around hunting, because I see potential for noise to be a factor. However, my son is using this *only* for target practice. We both think that for hunters, noise could be an issue: there's no foam in the base of the tube, and it's hard plastic. There's a bit of a rattle if you don't have a bunch of arrows in it. However, after seeing that other reviewers said they put a piece of foam at the bottom, I just improvised and rolled an old washcloth in the bottom of it: easy fix, and we did it just for the noise insulation. That would likely work for those who might be looking into this as a cheap hunting quiver.LID & TELESCOPING TUBE ITSELF: We also talked about the pros/cons of the lid not being attached, because I did see some quivers where there was a strap that was attached to the cap. But that would bang against the side of the tube if you had that. It's not like you're going to actually forget where you left the cap if you're standing doing target practice, and I guess if you're out hunting, you probably have all kinds of pockets where you could put the cap until you were ready to replace it. The telescoping tube is easy to adjust. If you've ever seen a telescoping walking cane, it's the same basic mechanism at work here. It's hard plastic, with an easy-to-adjust telescoping mechanism that allows you to lengthen it or shorten it. It reminds me of the tubes used for architectural blueprints, and you could certainly use it for large documents if you needed.WEARING v. STANDING UP TUBE: I'm including pictures, but I want to provide you some reference: my son is a very lean 12-y/o, about 90 lbs., and 5'3". With that being said, he does wear the quiver on his back. When I asked if he would be more comfortable standing it up, he said, "NO! It's too cool! Why would I want to stand it up?" He loves the way it looks, and I think he feels more like an archer with a back quiver.I asked if it bounces on his back or is uncomfortable and he says it isn't. But again, he's standing shooting at a target about 25 feet away. The only time he's really walking with it is after he's collected the arrows from the target or the wayward arrow that hits the brush; it's not like he's walking around the woods hunting. He's got the strap tightened to a comfortable position to where it sits perfectly, but still allows for him to take it off over his head when he needs to without having to adjust it. This is a kid who still uses one of those fluffy padded braces to go across the seat belt shoulder strap, too, because the seat belt always digs into him. When he goes outside to shoot, he's generally outside for about an hour and a half. So that's an hour and a half standing with this quiver on his back.FITTING ARROWS: My son can easily fit 18 arrows (ranging from 26" to 33" in length with mm ranging from 5.5 to 7.5) in this quiver. He *does* wear it on his back, and he does reach behind him to grab the arrows out of the quiver to nock them. I keep thinking he's going to end up hurting his elbow/shoulder with that repetitive motion, but he seems to be just fine. This is where he adjusts it to the shortest length to reach in and grab the arrows.UPDATE: He doesn't always wear it now. I guess having it constantly on his back has gotten to him. He'll wear it for a little while and then stand it up. It does stand up on its own, even with arrows in it and as you retrieve arrows from it. I suppose it depends on the ground, but on a flat surface, it does stand up without having to lean it against anything.SPILLING: When he does go to retrieve a wayward arrow, the arrows in the quiver *do not* spill out from behind him, and that was one of the things I thought would happen. Bonus.STORAGE: My son has adjusted the telescoping part of the quiver to where it's at one of the lowest settings while he wears it - it allows him to reach all of the arrows by their fletchings with ease. When he's done, he adjusts it to where he can close them up/cap them/take them back to his room for storage. It's better than piling them all inside a box that one set of 31" arrows came in!

So here's the deal. For those who complained it was too short - this is adjustable, and has several notches you can "stretch" it with.Pros: Adjustable, and you can strap it on your back. The lid is nice and it'll be nice for when we take our bow and arrows hiking (as compared to the other open quivers). Getting arrow in and out is just fine too - just shrink it down when it's in use. Very nice.Cons: pretty cheap plastic (you do get what you pay for though, so that's only 1/2 a con). The notches for stretching it don't always "stay" well - they're sorta just slid in, and if you have to turn the cap you might pull them out of place. Creative, but I might drill a hole or something to better secure the position with something. Not sure, as I do like to change it back and forth. My concern here though is that, over time, the cheap plastic will wear out and it'll just start collapsing. We'll see!Overall , so far, we like it.

I really like this. It is very sturdy. It is a little narrow so you may not fit all of the arrows, but it’s still a good quiver to use.

The promised arrow insert was nowhere to be seen. The case is flimsy but functional. Without an insert, it is likely bad for the arrows.

Adjusts to good size for length of arrowsEasy storage and accessibility

Great product, use it to store 12 arrows in my soft case on side pocket. I ordered TUBE ONLY, saved money with no foam insert and all is working great. Highly Recommend.

Hold my sons 30” arrows have 20-25 in it and they fit just fine. Easy to adjust the length to what ever you need and locks in place. Light weight
