You wise, jonesy! I haven't used one lately, but with a Boa or Kwickee, I left them on too. I would fill all the slots but one, to simulate that first shot.

I just like carrying the bow more when I don't have the added weight at one side. I may change back, or not. Either way has its inconveniences.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

For the back yard shooting, I make them from a cardboard tube and tomatoe stake. For 3D or stump shooting I like my Great northern.

Beautiful tribute to the deer.

I just use the cheap clip-on belt quivers for practice sessions. If I ever go to a shoot I'll probably use a my Deer Hide back quiver (shown). Hunting is a differeny matter though. I don't mind some weight on a recurve and I have a strap-on that works fine. I don't like much, or any weight on my longbows though. I have been trying a Skookum two-arrow stalking quiver and it works well. It keeps an arrow at hand for still-hunting. They also make a single arrow model.

    I have just started using a "Simmons Bushmaster" for the main arsonal. It is light and keeps arrows and fletching completely protected and covered. It really shines when pushing thru thick brush. No hang-ups on arrows or torn-up fletching. It can be tossed around, and will keep fletching dry. I hunt the ground lately and just keep an extra arrow at hand, but they also sell a small screw-in single arrow holder if you hunt from trees.

   I like Killie's modified one with the possibles bag attached. Great idea, I may have to try something like that.
