I have tried them all, sold on a side stalker, hanging from my shoulder. Most are too short, should be long enought to hide the fletch, and have a short leather cap on end that can be removed, to protect from debris and rain. Mudd had one on here a while back someone made for him, I think to his specs, you could PM him and find out.

I use a HNH leather side quiver for hunting and a hip or pocket quiver for 3Ds.

i think there will always be a demand for back, side 'stalker' and bow quivers.  i use all three, but mostly an efa bow quiver and a jack bowers stalker side.  love the look of back quivers, but they're not as practical as the other two for hunting, imo.

Good for you Yornoc! Best of luck.

I rebuilt (several times) an older Bear hip quiver & used it successfully for near 20 years before switching to the HH heavy BQ. It is now completely broken in after nearly 4 years & I love it. Can't see using anything else.

I like it.  What's the length of the quiver itself?

Will it work with Rage Expandables?

Just kidding - looks good and sounds like a good idea.

Nice work! I hunt with a side stalker and shoot 3D with a back quiver made from a yucca plant/tree. Got it from Sal in a trade!

Rick, the length is as long as you want it to be. Its all custom for the individual buyer. Any premaid stuff goes on the auction site.

Tom, got a pic of the yucca quiver? Sounds pretty cool.

I hunt with bow quivers that I detach as soon as I climb into my tree stand. I shoot in the backyard and on the 3-D trail with a hip quiver. I've just ordered a leather belt quiver from 3Rivers that is much smaller than the hip quiver I've been using. I'm curious about all leather back quivers for 3-D, not hunting -- I can't the idea of my broadheads touching. My arrows are 28" long so I'd want to make sure the quiver wasn't so deep that my feathers were damaged.

Personally I wouldn't be attracted to the fur quiver -- a little too traditional too basic for me.

David,

I have used hip quivers for targets, bow quivers for hunting, and plains sytle quivers for both.  The plains style that I took to CO last year had sewn sleeves for each 2 blade broadhead, allowing me to keep em sharp! The heads fit tightly in the quiver, so nothing fell out, but the convenience of a bow quiver in the thick, dark timber won out and I bolted one on after day 1.  

My buddy used a bowquiver last year and a catquiver this year with a single arrow on his bow.  We are both open to new ideas, and Joe is working on a variation of a tube quiver.  

I am thinking that his cat quiver is upside down, and wondering if there is an option that keeps the broadheads protected, the feathers from getting wet, and is still convenient to withdraw an arrow.  It is also a big plus if you can easily detach it from you pack to make a stalk or close the distance quickly.

You got any ideas?

Hugh in TN

BTW, I too love to look of your stuff. The leather prototype looks well made, and those fur quivers sure are cool!  Ever make any out of groundhogs?

Hugh, your going to laugh. No quivers but I made a possibles bag out of a groundhog (woodchuck over here) that a guy killed with his ten speed bicycle.

More pics as soon as I can on the broadhead quivers. Hand is still broken so I'm kinda struggling.
