Photos of quivers attached to packs?

[GMMAT]

I'm trying to carry as little as possible to CO.  I just got my pack (Badlands Diablo), and it seems like there should be a way to attach "some sort of" quiver to the side that would have the arrows accessible, yet still out of the way.  I have an AM quiver I love, but I sure don't want to carry it, if I can figure out something less cumbersome.....and it still be extremely functional.

May be a pipe dream.  Thought I'd ask.

Thanks.

Side quiver like the ones sold at Safari Tuff tied onto or clipped off to the pack.  I am making a side quiver with a closing hood over the arrow opening for that exact pack.  I am using an easton arrow tube that expands.  I plan to cut out the arrow hole and line it with fleece and make a fleece cover.  I will sew on straps and put clips on them so I can attach it to the pack.  

If you get creative you can make one yourself or shop around and find one that you can rig to the pack.

Why not carry the Arrowmaster with the pack on?  I like mine that way - seems that the top of the quiver nestles in against the pack and keeps it nice and stable.  I put the pack on first and then the quiver.  It does take an extra step to remove the quiver before taking off the pack, but it keeps my arrows right where they need to be.

That's how I've seen it done...slick!

I'm with Whip and Guru on this one. I wear a pack a lot and the Arrowmaster seems like it was made for bowhunters who use packs.

I've always used a bow mount quiver, never was comfortable with a back quiver and 33" arrows. Bought an Arrowmaster from Whip in Kalamazoo and it's the best thing ever. Haven't had the opportunity to use it with a pack yet but I can see it won't be a problem at all. Rod and Joe are super guy's to deal with.

I like my Bison Gear set-up.

Anyone have a pic of that Arrowmaster? I'm curious now.

I use a minicat and attach it to the side of my badlands superday.

Lots of reasons not to attach  your quiver to your pack and I've always preferred to keep it independant.

An Asbell style quiver is just about perfect for use with a pack in my book.

Another option: scroll down to Mark Baker's photos of his quiver caddy.

I own an arrowmaster, and I'm definitely going to play around with trying to attach it TO THE PACK (even if I have to have some lashing straps sewn on).  If I can't attach it to the pack, I've just got it in my head it's gonna be a PITA.

Thanks so much for the recommendations, guys.  Much appreciated!

I own a lot of different quivers, and each seems to work better in some situations compared to others.  You might say that looking for the perfect quiver falls into the category of a "life long search".  That being said, two of my current favorites for overall usage are Rod Jenkins' Arrowmaster and Art Vincent's series of leather "stalker" side quivers.  Right now my go to quiver is a custom stalker that I had the good forture of helping Art design.  He added brass D-rings so the quiver could be attached to my leather backquiver or Bisongear "Elk Hunter" wool pack. A deeper hood was also added to accommodate longer and larger heads, plus a few other new features including a file sheath and improved arrow clips. It works very well unattached and simply slung over the shoulder - very stable. The quiver can be hung in a tree, quietly positioned for stalking, or detached quickly for a final approach.  I also like the way it performs in a pop-up blind. The larger "platform" of the quiver allows quiet, one hand, arrow removal so you can keep you eye on the intented target at all times.  Lighter quivers I have tried won't allow this; they tend to slide or scoot around at the moment of truth.

A GFA quiver on my 2200.  Used this setup in the wastach mts and it worked really good.
