i like my arrows on the bow! just the most practical thing for me and the way i hunt.
i modified a boa bow quiver so it is much smaller and lighter and carries 5 arrows.
There is more to the Hunt.. then the Horns

I like a rig similar to Whip's above.  I have a commercially made one and a mini-cat that is nice because it covers the fletching.  Want to try the Safari tuff mentioned before.  Always looking for something new/better but absolutely deplore any type of bow quiver at all.  Never can get used to having arrows bolted or strapped on the side.

Hey Danny...it only took me 30 or so years to take the plunge & finally try a bow quiver this past month.  i only use it on my super light one piece longbows & i found it improved my consistency..old dog (myself)...new tricks   :)

I made my own plains quiver...can't tell you how it performs in action since I'm still a newbie and will not have my first opportunity to find out until August. Quinn
 

oops that's the one I traded for some arras.  This one is my mule deer plains quiver.

Haaa! A couple of everything- but I modify all mine so I can carry on my belt, on my back, or GFA/Plains style.

Funny you ask. I made a real simple bamboo one yesterday; cut a piece about 3.5 or 4" across, about 18 inches long, and left the node section for the bottom. Might reinforce it. Drilled out two slits in the side for a belt to go through and put a cord loop at the top and bottom for a strap if I want. Took about 10 minutes, cost nothing. So far so good.

Might make a basket-type soon.

Oh, and I got the bamboo down the street from my house about a year ago. It comes in handy pretty often.

About time to cut some more, I guess.

If you need to cary a back pack like I do and need the arrows accessible I highly recommend the EFA Bow performance is KEY for me and that quiver changes nothing.I would Otherwise cary a HIP quiver

The Selway seems to get more use, but I have a CatQuiver III that is my elk hunting quiver; I can carry a day's worth of trail food, knives, bugle, rope, etc, and not have it hanging off my belt.

I've got a variety.  For my 3pc longbows I prefer a Great Northern bow quiver. For my 1pc longbows I prefer a side quiver like the one on Dean Torges' website.

I've tried bow quivers, cat quivers, back quivers, Lakota style quivers, etc. etc. etc.  Hands-down the best I've tried so far is the Arrow Master--I haven't found any drawbacks to it yet, and I've tried.  

I haven't hunted with it yet (just got it this year), but I've shot several 3-D tournaments with it.  I've waded through thick brush and walked several miles with it on--the fletch cover stays put, it's super quiet, it holds lots of arrows or just a few equally well, arrows come out and go back in quietly and easily, arrows don't fall out or get snagged even in thick brush, it can be worn several different ways, large acessory pocket, rides like nothing is there.........there's got to be something wrong with it (no quiver can be this good, can it?), but I have yet to figure out what it is!

Wish Rod would have made this one a long time ago--I could have saved a small fortune and a bunch of aggravation with hunting quivers.

On my one piece recurve I like a strap-on Thunderhorn Boa because it keeps my arrows close by and silences the bow. But with my longbow I don't like the extra weight of a bow quiver so I use some type of side quiver (depending on my mood)

I am a back quiver guy myself, I use the King Royal from 3Rivers archery, They used to sell it with a pocket on the outside, now it's just a quiver..none the less...It's 25"deep and it takes a beating! I have a selway slip on also for different hunts..That's just me though. Good luck in your selection.

I bought an Arrowmaster Quiver(LH) from Safari Tuff for my son and he really likes it. So not to be out done by my boy, I have one order now. Hope to have it next week!

I've got to say, my favorite type of quiver is a good ol' fashioned Indian style (kind of a hip/back quiver mix) described in TBB V. 1 by Jay Massey...its quiet, effecient, and keeps the arrows in there thru any forest!!

I'm using both a web tight bow quiver from BW and I carry a catquiver mini for a couple more back ups if a herd of bucks attack, or I miss 12 times. I built a cool leather one that holds 24  or so that I practice and travel with for field point arrows. I'll post a pic when I get the new strap on it I'm building.
