That does seem like a good method to hold an arrow. The only concern I would have is the effect on the areow being shot, because the feathers may contact the holder more than expected.

If you put one on your bow let us know how it works out.

Not a bad idea but I'd have it wrecked in about 10 minutes.

Guess I've never had that problem.....

Guess I'd have to try it before I'd dump all over it, but Rifleman's post about having fletchings that were too high and causing flight problems with properly-spined arrow would seem to be an appropriate cautionary tale....

I make my own for my wife's bow. Works real well.

You can make a similar device that also ‘cushions’ the shaft by carefully modifying a toothbrush. Judiciously clip individual bristles to get the cushion needed while leaving the outside row to hold the arrow. Gets a lot of conversations started. Works, and goes to show everything has at least two uses if you look hard enough

I tried it and it seems to work very well. I use a Bear Weather rest and the arrow does not seem to be affected by the feather. A good idea. Joel

God gave me an index finger on my left hand, and that'd canting the bow is what has served me for 40 years to keep the arrow on the shelf. ;-)

God gave us a brain to figure out how not to freeze our fingers while hunting in the cold.
