Title: speaking of quivers
Post by: wingshooter on February 18, 2008, 04:29:24 pm

Here is my back quiver. The only problem is my arms are short and I feel like a dog chasing it's tail sometimes. ;D

Thats why I started using the pocket quivers between my kids and my wife they taught me a long time ago how to reach for my billfold pocket.

Make the quiver shorter and it is easier to draw the arrow out.  See the quivers in museums.

Hi, Nice quiver! But can you tell me if you made your bag also? I want to make one, so can you give me the size of it or where you got it from? Thanks for your time! Steve.

Nice looking quiver.  How long is it?
If you feel like a dog chasing its tail now, can you imagine having to draw it and a bow from a 40" tube stuck to your backpack.  :-X  I would send that in to funniest home videos, and win.  :o ;D Justin

Nice quiver.I use the bow string and just push it up to reach mine.Holding your bow in the left hand
just rock it and the string will push it right to you.I got short arms,Jerry Hill showed me that 20 years ago at Cloverdale when I bought my first back quiver.Love the coat also. :)

I like the bag.  Did you make that yourself?  I made one a while ago, but it is more round at the bottom, and does not hold as much as a square one would.  I like the design of yours.
