"Quivering" with anticipation!!!!
« on: October 18, 2008, 12:28:00 PM »
Okay guys lets see em.  

Vintage Bow quivers, back quivers, side quivers etc etc.

I know there are some neat ones out there because they pop up in threads from time to time.  Lets get them in one place to showcase them.

I'll start with a few that are in my small collection.

 

 

 

I'll dig up a few more pics but this should get us started.

While you are digging Trap I got this one out
 
This quiver took over 4 years to complete, and it wasn't till Trap spotted the pouch on **** that my quiver was complete. I am darned glad I didn't have to buy it incomplete from AIGPLAST.............wait a minute! AIG?  :scared:

Like Jack, I am technically challenged, or just plain tired of registering on any darn sights any more, but I do have a couple keepers, a Western and a 1960 North Woods..
If someone wants to post them I'll send pic's tomorrow.. (Need to take a picture or two of the North Woods, but Daryl, in the mean time get rid of that broom handle, and get a proper file

I'll post the pics if you can send them to me Ken.  

As for the file, hey gotta start somewhere.  Eventually the proper one will come along but for now it is what it is.

Bjorn, that quiver is the epitome of traditional archery IMO.  Developed by Glenn St. Charles and sold by Bear Archery.  Does it get any better than that?  Thanks for sharing it with us.

keep em coming guys, I know there's some green 8 arrows on some SKs out there somewhere.

Thought I better get this one up before someone else shows a better one LOL!
 

That's mounted to a very pretty old Grizzly with a nice Maple tip overlay.

Where would you date that 4 Arrow Doc?  

A prototype prior to the bubblehead with bleeders, from 53-54 maybe?

That's cool.

Here's a Tape On I played around with a bit.  I call it the "Great Northern Bear"  

Straps are GN and it incorporates the GN rubber tubes to make it adjustable.  The slightly longer quiver keeps the arrows from flopping around so much and quiets things down quite a bit.

Seeing Bjorn's cool scabbard brings back bad memories of a poor decision..

Does anybody think a piece of bicycle innertube would work as a bow finish protector for those spring arm quivers? And does anybody have any long spring arms? I got 2 of these that are okay for super mags, but need longer arms for a superK.

My wife will kill me if I start collecting the real nice ones you guys have!

The Northwoods is definately one of my favorites.  A St. Charles X Nimrod hybrid kinda.  

Awesome stuff.  Nice file BTW   ;)

Darly,
Thanks for posting the picture.
I believe the Northwoods was only offered in one year, 1960, as Doc said it's a bit of a hybrid. This one is very clean, but the previous owner, modified the straps, so they had to be redone.
The Western is I believe about 1956, with the file and knife scabbards, and pencil slot.. Not all Westerns had them.  Both are probably 8+ on a 1-10.

Well it seems all us real guys have Nimrods-right?
 
Mine's complete with Glenn's signature, top hat, knife, and of course who could forget the 'broom-handle' file!
Trap looks like our file handles are 'cut from the same broom'?
