Non-Bow Quiver Help Please!
« on: January 29, 2010, 12:58:00 PM »
I recently found that I shoot a lot better with my Selway off of my bows. I am an avid hunter and I am lloking for a hunting quiver that is versitile for the following 3 things...

-Deer hunting from the ground - 3 to 4 broadhead arrows and a couple judos

-squirrel hunting - 7-9 arrows (some BH's some Judos)

3D and Range shooting - Lots of target arrows.

I tried the GFA and got it in the mail the other night. It was not my cup of tea. I made my own tube style side quiver but used small PVC and can only hold 4 target arrows, and 1 3-blade Snuffer comfortably.


Thanks,
Matt

Matt,

I have had good performance from this quiver. I believe 3 Rivers sells them.

HighnoonHunter quivers, made by Bobby Ratliff. I don't know how much longer that he is gonna be building them but I really like mine. You can wear it numerous different ways, I like wearing mine as a side quiver. Here are a couple of pictures, and I can put you in contact with Bobby if you need his contact info just give me a shout.

I have this love-hate thing with quivers.   Bow quivers, back quivers, side quivers, you name it...I am always looking to toss out the old and get something "better".  

I have had the Arrow Master for several years now...I've tried to toss it...I have...I just cannot find anything that fits the 'better side" of the equation.

Get a GOOD Hill Style backquiver!!!!!

Use it for stumping and 3-D shoots first,then out on a few squirrel hunts..... Once you get used to using it and it gets comfortably molded to your back,you will find it both very comfortable AND practical!!!!!

I keep my Selway on my Mikuta longbow all year long. Many times a bowquiver is really the only practical way to go. However,I LOVE my backquiver and it is the only one I use when I take any of my old Bear recurves out for a walk,either stumping or hunting. For 3-D,it holds more arrows than I'll ever need(ALOT)and the only one I will use. Keep the strap loose and learn to master the "Backquiver Bump". Most guys wear thier quivers too tight,they can't slide it down under thier bow arm when going through the brush and this is where they encounter problems. If the quiver is loose,it just hangs down behind your back.You develope a knack for walking sideways through brush,and when you get in the REALLY thick stuff you pull it down almost horizontaly under your bow arm. When you get out of the thick stuff,just slide it back behind you. If you shoot and you need another arrow,take your bow arm elbow and "bump" the quiver up into possition where the top is about even with the top of your shoulder,and you will easily be able to reach the nocks of your arrows.
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!

Hunterace, that is a very nice quiver, where could I find some plans on how to make one myself? How many hunting arrows will that one hold?   :thumbsup:

Great success with a side quiver for 20+ years before switching to backquiver 3 years ago. Once you get used to the function of the BQ, you'll like it. Neither do I care to shoot with anything attached to my bow.

Hi all.  I dont like a quiver attached to my bow so this year I started using the Safari Tuff side quiver. I got it from 3 Rivers.  I think it is the best thing sense MRE's.  I carry three Broadheads, several small game and a stumper or two with no problem.

Here is the Bandalaro quiver by Thunderhorn.  You can use a belt or make a strap (like Gene Wensel does).
