That's an awesome looking job! Where did you purchase the leather?

Looks like you did a great job!  How does feel in the woods?

Bet it won't be your last one, though     :)    

Somebody is going to want to buy that one off you. You will think of a couple of things you want to do a little different and away it will go and a new one will be started.

Don't ask how I know that. Just call it a gut feel.
I've already gotten an offer and a request to make another one. And yeah I'm already thinking of different things for the next one. Maybe doing a rough out quiver.

The main leather came from Tandy's, they had a sale on single shoulder, I got it for $30. I needed some tools and lacing which I bought at Springfield leather. All in all I have about $50 in it and I still have a lot of leather left over. I'm thinking of making me an arm guard.

I haven't had a chance to take it in the woods yet, but around the yard practicing it feels great. Although I'm going to have to wait until next year before I get to take it hunting. Hopefully.  My arrows are a bit on the long side. I'm using full length GT Trads so I have to grab the arrows by the shaft below my feathers when I draw them, but it works good.

I'm very happy with it so far. It's taking a while to break in but I expected as much with this stiff leather. I keep forgetting to get me a piece of carpet for the bottom. Every time I drop an arrow in I get a nice THUD.

Great Job On That Quiver! Try an old mouse pad for the inside/bottom... Should quiet things down a lot...
