For those of you who spot and stalk hunt, what do you find works best quiver wise, especially with a pack? bow/side/back quiver, etc? I would love to see pics of your setups too please.

thanks
Fin

I use a 4 arrow strap-on bow quiver. It's just way simpler to have everything (bow,quiver,arrows) together, not hanging out of my pack or banging against it, or forgotten somewhere. It's a Shrew quiver that I think was made by Aneewakee/Kanati. If I'm packing in somewhere for a number of days I sometimes also carry more arrows in a tube-type quiver (Simmons).

Here's the quiver on my Widow in some blueberries.

I use just a basic strap on bow quiver and carry three broadheads and a blunt. I always carry a backpack. It's the easiest way for me, my arrows go where my bow goes.

I use a GFA quiver. It fits over, around and to the side of my back pack.

Bow quiver for me. Like chinook907, I like to have all my arrows on the bow nothing else to worry about during the stalk.

those look good Clint,

But i have no idea what Aussie dollars equate to US dollars.

Google currency exchange and you'll get sites where you just plug in the amounts.

Ozy, that Quiver system looks sweet, what an excellent concept.

imo, for stalk or blind hunting game larger than small, it's hard to beat a 4 to 6 arrow *lightweight* bow quiver w/fletch cover. for small game, a side or back quiver will hold the dozen to eighteen shafts required.

bow quivers keep yer ammo on yer weapon, are compact, don't get in the way or flop around, move easily through the bush while on yer hands and knees, and add a measure of "stability" to yer stick bow.

i use an efa 4 or 5 arrow ultra-lightweight totem bow quiver, with a clip-on for a judo. the "totem" feature joins both parts of the quiver so it becomes one unit that can be removed and with a simple strap it becomes a side quiver.

a side stalker quiver i made that will easily hold 18 small game/roving arrows ...

I totally agree.

I like a two arrow quiver on my bow. I keep extras in my Bison Gear back quiver which attaches to my pack. When I make a stalk, the pack and my boots get taken off. I see no reason to carry a bunch of arrows on a stalk, two is enough.

When I lived on the Oregon coast chasing Roosevelt elk and Blacktail deer I always used a bow quiver because of the brush.

I did try a stalker side quiver once and it did okay, but I always went back to a bow quiver; it didn't matter if I was using a recurve or a longbow.

Good luck with your choice and God bless,
Paul

I can vouch for those first hand. Awesome quivers.

The Aussie dollar is slightly in favour of the US at the moment. One Aussie dollar is buying 98US cents.

For me any good bow quiver,I don't need anything running around my body and hitting limbs!

slade · « **Reply #17 on:** November 22, 2011, 04:19:00 AM »

3 arrow bow quiver.

Hopewell Tom · « **Reply #18 on:** November 22, 2011, 05:23:00 AM »

What would I know, I haven't gotten any arrows bloody yet. BUT I do have a hard time keeping my mouth shut!
I'm going with a 4 arrow bow quiver, EFA or Kanati(although I like Shedrock's 2 arrow setup)and a Catquiver for extra arrows and a pack. Super solid on the back. Having more than 4 or 5 arrows on board for some reason feels better. Can't have too much ammo.

One arrow bow quiver and the rest in a side-stalker.
