I got some great feedback on the two 5 arrow quiver designs I posted yesterday. I played with it some more today, and I really like this newest one. It's kind of the best of both designs. It's not excessively wide, relatively low profile, allows easy access to all 5 arrows, and maintains good feather clearance. Plus it allows you to easily carry arrows with small game heads. To my knowledge, this is the best design I've seen for small game heads on a bow mounted quiver.
I still need to get the last couple metal brackets painted. I'm also going to replace the silver machine screws and rivets with flat black Chicago screws, either Allen or torx head. That'll make a pretty big improvement to the appearance.
Here's how it sits now. Let me know what you think.

I love it, just 1 non BH arrow isnt enough for me, this quiver looks like the perfect combo.
I think you nailed it!
Still would like to see it swept back, but the shaft arrangement looks excellent.
I really like the fact that it accomadates small game heads.

I'm gonna build an offset bracket where it can be mounted either vertically, or swept back. I've just been getting the quiver itself worked out up to now.
That looks great tomsm44!

Super cool! Really like that. Can I ask where you find the grippers and bow mount?

Thanks. I built all of it myself. All of the rubber and strap material can be found on Amazon.
Looks like the perfect answer to those bunny hunts when deer season is still in. Also for this time of year for stump shooting. Nice job.
good job very nice
