I have three daughters to outfit and to answer the question honestly I would say No, I cant afford to buy those type of novelty items for my girls. They have "hand me down" equipment. If and when they get really involved in archery I will buy them quality, functional equipment but in my humble opinion a fur quiver just doesnt make sense.

I don't mind buying something they can pass down and spending a little extra for,as long as they take care of it. I have four kids,daughter 13,son 11, son  6, son 3, they all love to shoot bows. I have tried to get equipment such as they can grow with works out good with bows as they grow they pull back further and harder, equipment they tend to fuss and fight about what is who's but they use anything they can get, used to it in a bigger household as they have to share.

Since I'm a retired grandpa and trying to outfit 5 grandchildren with bows, arrows, quiver, gloves, etc. I buy used everything when I can. I find kids don't really care about fancy quivers so your market is a dad with enough disposable income to buy something like that will be mainly for his benefit, not the kid's.

So no I wouldn't buy anything like that.
