    I take 3 with broadheads. I know other people bring another 3 with small game and practice tips so it may or may not be ppl just showing off all the arrows they own

    My quiver can fit 4 arrows comfortably without screwing up the foam so that's how many I take.

    3 arrows, so far in my 9 years of bowhunting I have not used more than 1 arrow in a hunt.

    I know if could happen so I keep bringing 3.

    I carry six because they look sexy in my quiver:nana:

    I will probably have 3 outfitted w. Killzone's for deer, one with a judo point in case there's a tree rat that's really annoying me, a couple rage's for a turkey, bobcat, or fox.

    Six because that's what my quiver holds. Three will have broadheads, one will have an older muzzy and the last two will be the small game points.

    Quiver holds 6, I take in what I have left from the last season so last season I went in with 6 but this season I am going in with 4, 1 is on my bucks antlers and the other I lost. When I get down to 2 arrows I go and buy my next 6.

    Quiver holds 5, so I have 3 for deer, 1 with an old broadhead just in case a yote steps out, and one judo point in case a squirrel commits a capital offense.

    I carry 3, I figure if I cant hit it after that then I shouldnt be hunting. But on another not, everyone posting about shooting small game with their bows. Check your state regulations, because here in PA you have to have 250 square inchs of orange on to be shooting small game, even with a bow.
