How should arrows with broadheads be carried in the field?

In a quiver with a hard cover that encloses the broadheads.

  1. Loose in a backpack pocket
  2. Nocked on the string, ready to shoot
  3. In a quiver that covers the broadheads ✔

Why: Broadheads have razor-sharp steel blades. A covered quiver protects you and the blades. Treat bows and arrows like a loaded firearm, and never climb or cross obstacles with an arrow nocked.

Huh, didn't know that: Broadheads are made for big game, while field points are used for practice.

The dad joke
Why did the arrow join the quiver club? It wanted to feel like it belonged.
