Cool!! That looks great,in time you will get used to it and have a feel how to carry it on your back and grab arrows from it. Good luck send more pics when your done with it.

Looks very nice.  I  have plans to build a shoulder/back quiver that has the opening towards the bottom on the one side so you can reach the arrows from down low.  That would be a fun project to try!!

Thanks again for all the kind colmpliments. As a lefty I have had to make my own leather stuff in the past. Especially single action holsters. But transferring the leather craft to archery is nice and opens up many more leather project opportunities.

Good job Bud! I'm always envious of you leather workers. Us lefties always have to hunt for the stuff we need. Good for you for making your own!!

i like the quiver. i think the adjustable strap would be good in the clothing changes from alot of clothes in the winter to just a tee shirt in the summer. nice desighn but would still have to be deeper and able to hold more arrows to be perfect for me.

:eek:  

I'm guessing it'll hold upwards of 36 or more arrows.

I have to stretch now to remove the arrows. If the quiver was taller I'd have to get a lower grip on the arrows. Right now I can grab a nock and slide it out with only minimal clearance. Taller would be difficult for me. Or I'd have to wear it lower on the back which would make the arrows harder to reach.

My arrows with grizzly heads are about 34" long.

OK guys and gals,

I went to a 3d shoot this weekend and moving through the trees and such I figured I'd use a back quiver to see how I would do wearing one for an extended period of time. I had just bought one off Wayne the Baptist from the TG classifieds that was a double strap backpack style. It worked wonderfully (Thanks Wayne) and that made me re-configure mine.

With my limited flexibility I think this will be the style for my physical makeup and to use while hunting. With time it should come second nature. I'm able to reach them with ease.

The one I got from Wayne is on the left. It almost swallows the 28" arrows that are in the quiver on the right.

Thanks for the help and compliments. I think I'm going to retire the Kwikee, at least or now.
