I was just scrolling through 3Rivers website and saw that they have a new side quiver. It looks pretty nice and the price is right. I may have to try it out because my old dog ware quiver has seen better days.
-
Like my Riverwolf.
:campfire: :coffee: :archer2: :campfire:

That's a good looking tube quiver that also looks well made. :thumbsup:
-
I think the Safari Tuff side quiver is the best out there. It’s comfortable with a well thought out design.
-
So jr1959, I take it by your comment that you have tested the two side by side?
-
Charles, no I have not but have tried others and used to use side stalker just like the safari tuff better.
-
I use my Riverwolf mainly to carry extra ammo.

I love a side\back quiver! Tried many times to adjust to a bow mounted setup but my style of hunting had me unloading the quiver and setting arrows around me..not to mention I hate having anything on my bow. At the 3d course it really comes in handy with managing 3 kids worth of arrows in addition to mine!
-
That is a nice looking quiver. :thumbsup:
Is it fairly ridged?
-
To clarify my original post, I know very little about side quivers. I am very interested in the history behind them and am very impressed by the work Riverwolf put into the design. That said, from here on out, I will stick to what I know and take my Hill-style back quiver into the woods because if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. :biglaugh:

HMMmm looks familiar
Hey Tim,
What's that bow ??
Looks really sweet....
Best

I only use bow quivers, but I can see where this might come in handy in certain situations like blinds. It is a nice looking quiver, and I also like that its not camo. :thumbsup:
-
Michpatriot, just curious, what is your style of hunting?
E.T. all, I also would like to know how sturdy this quiver is.
-
I like!!!!!
And I like the non-camo!!!!!
Really smart looking. :thumbsup:
-
Anyone purchased one of these yet?
-
Hmmm. I always use bow quivers, but I think I'm going to purchase this style just for kicks. It "may" work for certain situations better. I take my bow quiver off when I hunt from blinds and lean an extra arrow up against the blind in front of me.
I would also like to know Michpatriot's hunting style to see what else I might could use it for. :thumbsup:

This looks like a well thought out design. Like many of you, have used various quivers over my bowhunting time. I have used a side quiver off and on for decades from a home made design to a latigo side quiver, safari tuff arrow master. It is nice to have the flexibility in stalking, 3D shooting or roaming. From my perspective, the one thing that really sets this one off is the placement of the pocket. This allows other material to be carried and not change the weight distribution of the quiver. Other one's place them to high and when add a multitool, stringer, keys or other things, cause the quiver to "ride" more forward. This pocket placement will keep the F.O.C. down, and keep it riding where it should. I tried this years ago with a home made design that proved it to me. With the quality, I will be ordering one soon.

I just got off the phone with 3Rivers and YES, it is very ridged. This I like and now I'm interested!!!
Also.... this is a nice hood that comes with it....
-
Thanks for getting us the answer!!! :clapper: :clapper: :clapper:
Also, the hood is a really nice item to go along with it. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I'm going to purchase one for several reasons. I have an original style Arrow Master from when Ed Jenkins owned it and I have used in on a lot of occasions where the bow quiver wasn't needed, or was still used and I needed the Arrow Master as well. On hunts were there are lots of rabbits available along with hogs and javies, I put my small game arrows in a side or back quiver and my hog and javie arrows are in my bow quiver. Once I go into pursuit of the larger game I ditch my back/side quiver, and move in from there.
This one being more ridged will pack better in my duffel when I fly. And, I could use it along with my carry one as my "personal item" and stuff it full of socks, extra Tshirts, and other personal items.
I also think this would be a great addition to all the other Sponsor goodies for the 28 hunters scheduled for the Laredo Tusk Roundup to check out and take along with them for a day or two if they wish.
I'll post more about it when I receive it.... :campfire:
-
Great, I'll be looking forward to the report-review. :clapper:
-
I received the quiver and I'm impressed at 1st sight!!!!!! This is a beautiful piece of equipment. The Pic of the OP is NOT representative. This quiver looks rich.
It's pouring down rain here at the moment, so I'll get pics and post more tomorrow after I try it out a bit in the back yard.....
-
Sorry for the hazy pics above, my camera on my phone was out of whack. Adjusted the settings. So, here's a better representation of the true color and richness.
-
That does look rich and well made! This o'l bow quiver guy might even try one. :thumbsup:
-
Yep, that's a looker for sure. I bet it's a lot quieter than those covered in a cordura type fabric. Thanks.
-
Oh, this quiver is going to the Laredo Tusk Roundup 2025 as part of the Sponsor Basket for all to check out. :thumbsup:
-
Well dang… I didn’t need a new side quiver, but after seeing those pictures… there’s going to be a box from 3Rivers heading my way soon!
-
Wow, those 2nd set of pictures are great. I agree, nice to see a non-camo ridged tube quiver. The price certainly looks fair.
-
Thanks, and I have to agree, the color is fabulous. I also like the pocket as it looks perfect for half day trips. Extra glove or tab, string, knife, small flashlight, file, and flagging tape? Would those fit you think?
-
Terry did not steer me wrong! This quiver exceeded my expectations. For anyone interested in a side quiver, rest assumed that this one is worth it.

Good stuff!!!!
Keep us posted on how you like it in use. :thumbsup:
-
Good looking quiver.
-
Wow, that quiver does look rich. Very nice!!! :clapper:

Tried many times to adjust to a bow mounted setup but my style of hunting
Michpatriot, please tell us your style of hunting so we can better use our side quivers.
Thanks,
TG

Price is up to 119.95 now. Still looks good for the price. Ordered one before they go up again lol.
-
Arrived a few minutes ago. Every bit the great quality Terry said it was. Swallows my arrows and leaves nothing sticking out. Roomy and quiet. Lots of adjustment on straps etc. Spacious pocket.

I got one of these for Christmas from my daughter. I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars. It is pretty well made and looks and feels great. I used it the last couple of days hunting and the best part is that it it is quiet and it holds arrows very well. The side pocket has a quality, plastic, quiet zipper and is a good size. I was able to carry a 10 inch folding saw and several other items easily. It is placed low enough on the quiver to keep it balanced properly. The tube has good rigidity and the side hole is properly sized and placed for quick and smooth arrow drawing. The carry strap feels nice and is comfortable with great adjustability. The D rings and swivel clips are plastic. The D rings should be pretty durable as they feel more like polymer. The swivel clips feel more plastic-like and will eventually break. The advantage of plastic is it is quiet and doesn't rust. The swivel clip should be fairly easy to replace. Now the reason for the half star that is missing. When I got mine, the plastic pinch release buckle that keeps you from loosing the rain hood was already broken. I thought about calling 3Rivers to have them send me a new one, but when looking at it, it was obvious that it is of such low quality and flimsy that it would just break again. So I decided to look for a better replacement/repair. The problem is that the leather loops to attach each end of the buckle are sewn shut. I bought a 3/4 inch "Sea to Summit Field Repair Buckle" off Amazon that has removable screw in pins and fixed it in about 5 minutes. I just snapped and broke the original buckle to get it out. So if you are looking for a quality fix for that, I suggest the repair buckle. You might even just consider replacing it before it breaks on you. While using the quiver the last few days, it has been fantastic. I highly recommend if you're in the market for one that won't break the bank.

Thanks for the update. Funny, I ended up receiving 2 hoods. :dunno:
