1 gallon freezer zip lock bag, plus I started using a rubber band to help keep the bag nice and tight around the shafts.  Worked well for me.

I have been using a side-stalker quiver that covers the fletching, I also use Camp-Dry on all my gear, light spray coats.
What is fun is my string silencers spraying my face upon release...

I use Canada goose feathers, naturally waterproof. I also have a safari tuff Arrowmaster with the hood. Best quiver ever designed for foul weather.
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short.

Mini cat quiver. The fletches stay up under the hood.

Something like fletch-dri goes on the feathers and a cover goes over that.  Works great.
