Quick Answer
Store traditional arrows in a dry, cool area with minimal light exposure, away from direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperatures. Keep them in a quiver or case, ideally hanging from a wall or on a hook. Avoid stacking arrows.
Storing Arrows in a Quiver or Case
Storing arrows in a quiver or case protects them from damage and maintains their condition. A quiver typically holds 3-6 arrows, allowing for easy access and organization. When not in use, arrows should be stored in a quiver or case to prevent scratches, dings, and other forms of damage. Consider investing in a high-quality, custom-made quiver or case that fits your arrows and bow.
Long-Term Storage and Handling
For long-term storage, arrows should be kept in a dry area with a consistent temperature between 60-70°F (15-21°C). Avoid storing arrows in attics, garages, or other areas prone to extreme temperature fluctuations. When handling arrows, always grasp the arrow by the nocks (the notched ends) to prevent damage to the fletching or shaft. Store arrows in a way that prevents them from touching each other, as this can cause damage to the fletching or shaft.
