Favorite hunting quiver
« on: March 18, 2024, 09:40:25 PM »
Please comment below your favorite style of quiver for hunting and why!
I am interested to hear everyone’s take on this one as I have experimented with almost everything and still don’t know that I have a favorite.
As I now focus mostly on Hill style bows and my own self bows, I have myself returned to using hill style back quiver and a side stalking style quiver. I like them equally and they each have a place for me.

I have a stitched Hillstyle back quiver like the one Bob Swinehart used. I wouldn’t consider hunting or shooting with anything else.

Great Northern strap on quiver, with a Selway being my second choice. I prefer a bow quiver and both are excellent.

My homemade hill style. Only down fall to these for me is when wearing a pack and being able to get to my arrows quickly. But for hunting close to the truck absolutely 👍🏼

I use a side stalker style quiver for target and 3D but prefer a GFA style quiver for hunting. I made it with an old Selway quiver with the hood and arrow hilder attached to a board I covered with snake skin for decoration. With the shoulder strap you can wear is along your side, behind your back or tucked under your arm for tight hunting areas. I keep a fletch cover wrapped around the board with easy access when needed. It is quiet and protects the broadhead like a bow quiver does.

I use a Thunderhorn Small Fry bow quiver for all my hunting. My other option I use sometimes for roving, 3D or squirrel hunting is my Hill style back quiver I made for myself 40 years ago.

I have two EFA models both with set back and Totem shafts and can’t imagine a hunt without them. Quiet, sturdy and very well crafted.

Love seeing all you fine fellers using the Hill style quivers!

Mostly Safari Tuff. Once in awhile I use a Great Northern strap on, or a bolt on Black Widow-on a Black Widow.

BTW, mine is the Duiker model,  which I think is no longer made. Just a smaller size.
Nice when you only need a few arrows. The pouch is big enough for a file ,Minnie binoculars, knife, and other odds and ends.

Great Northern strap on quiver followed by a selway slide on quiver. I like having everything right there and accessible in one hand.

I agree Trenton, they are handy. But I do also like colorful fletching and when I am in a tree stand, I just hang up my side quiver. Fletching is less likely to cause a problem. I read where G Fred made some camouflage arrows and didn’t like them at all. He couldn’t see them in flight. He liked to see a ball of color flying towards his target. There are trade-offs I guess.

Another thing is it keeps my fletching dry if caught in a downpour which happened quite a bit on one particular elk hunt in Colorado.

The Kwikee Kwiver is my favorite. Easy on and easy off. Plus, with the same bracket you can put on a 3, 4, or 6 arrow Kwikee Kwiver. Bad part is Kwikee Kwiver went out of business.  :dunno: I also have a Great Northern strap-on quiver, a Selway side mount quiver, two EFA quivers, a few Vintage Bear spring-arm quivers, and a few Bear Super Seven quivers. Plus, one belt/hip quiver I like a lot.

Kwikee are classic. And yes very unfortunate they closed doors.
