Backquiver Pics

[BCWV]

I've tried quite a few back quivers and was never really satisfied with any of them. I couldn't get one to fit me just right so I started making my own.

 This one works perfect for me. The pocket is a decent size and I put it on the bottom so it wouldn't throw the balance of the quiver off.

 

 My only issue with it is that it's pretty warm laying across my back in hot weather. I saw a quiver posted here from a TG member of a warm weather model so I made this one for my FL hog hunt this April. It works great.

 

 I plan to make another smaller one like this soon for 3D shoots.

Here is a bamboo one i love for farting around. Not great for hunting but perfect for everything else.

I built this this spring- pretty easy to do, just take your time. strap is elk hide, all stitching is artificial sinew. the inside is veg tan leather for support-

Wow! Some really nice workmanship on here!    
LoneRanger,I have an otter skin here,I think I may try to copy yours.
Here's a pic of the quiver I use for 3-d shoots. I hate the heat and an all leather quiver is just way to hot for me in the summer.

Very nice quivers guys!

I also love a good back quiver.  Over the years I used a stiff leather in my quivers, and always found it hard when actually hunting to keep them from rattling around loudly.  

This was my main quiver for a few years now.  I designed it originally after one on lord of the rings, but it ended up being a little ornate. It has a 4 strap harness pad attached to it, and coupled with all of the extra leather in the stitched in design, it is quite heavy.  It works very well, and is great for grouse hunting and target.  But too heavy and noisy for Deer and rabbit.
 
 

 

Recently I ordered a Howard Hill Cheetah. And in anticipation, I decided to make a hill style. I have never used one, or even seen one but there are lots of info about them online, and are said to be the best for quiet hunting.  Also, I wanted to make a quiver light enough, that I could carry a shoulder bag on the other hip without feeling too much strain in the shoulders.  I ended up making it a little more fancy than the usual pattern, but I wanted something a little different as well.

I used Latigo Leather on the design, and a heavy garment style leather for the main body.  This allows the quiver to shape around my back, and the latigo adds stiffness around the top and bottom where it seems to need it.
Here's a pic.

 

 

I also really like the Kanati Slim Jim quiver, when attached to my possibles bag.  The only thing I don't like about that set up is that I can't carry as many blunt points as I would like.

 

 

This was my first post, so I hope all the pictures worked.  I've been meaning to join this site for years now, as its the one I use most when I'm looking for answers to all things Traditional!  Thanks again

welcome welcome welcome.
love the lord of the rings quiver is that a hood to cover the fletchings next to it  what makes it to noisy?
that latigo leather quiver is very sharp. if you go into business let me know you do amazing work.

Here is mine made of bison fur with natural turkey feathers, bone beads, antler buttons, and an ermine pelt with it's winter coat.  I thought about selling it but never have; it's really cool.  I might just hold onto it.

This is my Saulk Valley Traditions and a vintage King quiver

Green and Mr. Fingers,

Thanks very much!  

Mr.Fingers,  that is the matching armguard to the quiver next to it. I styled it after Boromir's arm guards on LOTR.  The noise just comes from the arrows ratteling around against eachother. I tried stuffing the quiver with a shower puff, and it worked... but fell out every time I took an arrow out. The leather cover is a very good idea, and I've been thinking of making one for both of the quivers. I'm afraid if I ever went into business, I'd never make any money though, it takes me forever to make these things! haha.

Thanks again,
Barr

Ok I see now that it's an armgaurd a cover would be cool. So what is that LAYING across the top of the quiver. It looks like a pipe. Is it?

Nice stuff
