I have been wearing it around the house to break it in, my family thinks I'm a little nuts.

i do the same - my wife already knows i'm whacked, and the dogs just give me a bored look.  :D  

I have a question, should I wear it with or without arrows in it?

imo, don't matter - feels better with arras, though.

Also I have put a couple of cotes Obenauf's leather preservative on it so far, what do you use to soften yoours up?

a bit of leather preservative at first, then take it out on a lotta dates in the woods - seriously

I'd love to see some pictures of yours and any other words of wisdom you may have.

i really like yer quiver - now go on outside and USE it!

i like big, stiff back quivers for hauling a lotta arras when roving ... and softer, more conforming 'hill style' back quivers for 'other stuff'.

Rob, those are very nice. I found your design on the web and was one of the post I kept reffering to while I was building it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and putting it in an easy to understand format.
