(More customer reviews)I got this case because I shoot bow in the SCA and in that orgnization we are limited to wood shafted arrows only (and they prefer them took as "period" as possible, i.e. non modern). Feathered wood shaft arrows can be a bit expensive so I wanted to protect my investment. I also live in florida where we have the florida state bird (i.e the cockroach) and these little snots just love to chow on natural feathers for some reason. I thought this case would help keep them off my arrows when stored in the garage.
These cases are nice and rugged and four latches means they stay closed very well. The latches are also not permanently attached which makes them more rugged and conceivably replaceable if one should happen to break. Inside the case there are several "standoffs" that help keep the case from collapsing if something heavy got put on top of it. There are four rubber "holders" that keep the arrows separated (looks like that thing used to separate your fingers when applying finger nail polish). The holders are not glued into the case they slide into slots built into the inside of the case (nice, makes em replaceable and interchangeable). It is possible to get 18 arrows into this case but the arrows must be installed fletch to point on the arrow beside it and next to the "standoffs" you also have to be sure to rotate the feathers so they are not damaged by the standoff being in their way. Most people shoot around 28" draw, my friend shoots at around a 30" draw and the case is wide enough to accommodate arrows that are that long with no problems. It isn't a bad case but an experienced friend of mine told me this case will not keep the roaches out so i guess when I store it I'll need to put duct tape around it or somesuch...haven't really had the case long enough to test the theory that it won't keep the critters out.
The case has a hunk of foam inside by the handle, I don't know why they did that unless it was just to give the handle a more solid feel. These are pretty nice cases, it would be better if it had an accessory pocket on the outside or maybe some sort of strap setup to hold your ground arrow/bow holder or your quiver. With free shipping these are not a bad deal, we have two of them that have seen a few months use and they're fine and well made, you just have to get used to knowing how to get the arrows in there. If you shoot flu flu (bird arrows) the huge fletches on there are not going to allow a huge number of arrows in this case...at least not the 18 this case can hold of arrows with normal sized fletches.
