5 -  all with BHs. Four razor sharp and brand new - one that's already been shot and dulled a bit for shooting small game or checking my sights after a fall.

Carry a full quiver.  I made the mistake of carrying three in my quiver because I had always killed my elk with one arrow.  Well last day of a six day hunt I shot three arrows at the same elk.  Missed all three  :chuckle:   Truth be told I was in a bit of a panic as the elk and I had almost walked into each other.  First shot over its back.  Elk moves 10 or so yards.  Second shot kills the tree next to it.  Third shot clips a three limb.  All three shots were inside of 40 yards.  Then the elk steps out and gives me a perfect shot and I am out of arrows.  I felt like a complete rookie even though I had already killed 5 elk with my bow.

I carry four,   If I shoot four arrows it is time to go back to the truck and take a break anyway.  I watched a Ted Nugent hunting show and he had like 10 arrows , was a crazy full quiver.      Mike

I carry: 5 broadheads and one judo. Question: the arrow with the judo, carbon? Or do any of you use aluminum  (cost) for the grouse and other small game?
