quivers

[FeatherFletch]

I am looking for opinions on quiver types. I cant decide, on the bow, back, hip, or side

Personnal I like the Great Northern LB quiver, not the adjustable one.  Selway slide on is OK, but noticeably heavier.  Also, have a small strap-on Thunderhorn Boa that I liked, by not as much as the GN.

I have really enjoyed this Simmons Quiver this year.  I also have a great northern and like it too.

[McDave]

Does the Simmons quiver hold arrows of different sizes at the same time, for example, if you want both blunts and broadheads?  How easy and quick is it to rotate the arrows?

[DEERSLAYER1961]

That's one big rabbit eagle24  LOL Just kidding.  It's just that the quiver makes it look so small.  I'll shut up now.

I bought a Simmons this year...Nice quiver...But, if you shoot a big broadhead like the treeshark you'll have problems with the broadhead hitting the side of the quiver as you rotate the arrows...and, you can only get about three broadheads that size in the quiver...
At least that's my experience with it...

I use a plains type quiver for hunting ,3d , stumping and backyard practice. It does everything well. Otzi, the Iceman, found out how good they were thousands of years ago.

I like my back quiver from Mikes archery leather, he is a sponsor on this site. Great guy even greater products.  

[FeatherFletch]

if you use a back style quiver do you have any problems with arrows banging around?  i wouldn't want to spook animals when stalking them.

I would love to find a plains style quiver that would be could for hunting.

[Benha]

"could be used"

Plains style Quivers are good for Hunting and easy to make....You shuldn't have a problem finding one....
   Back Quivers are also great for Hunting you just need the right Back Quiver and know how to use it....
   A back Quiver will let ya know if your stalking to Quickly....If it's making noise your moving to fast....

You should give Eagle Flight quivers a try, I have a three arrow quiver, and it does not effect the accuracy of the bow, they have for arrow which I would recommend if you're going out elk hunting.  But I really liked my quiver, it doesn't slip around, and it's a great product.  They are a sponsor on the site.

I have been using the slide on selway because I like the added weight for my longbow.  It seems to help me stabilize better. I have just purchased a strap on that I feel is better as it is a tad lighter as the slide on.
For back quivers I have a standard rover and recently have gotten a new one which preety nice. It's a new design as it's 20" high and approx. 1",,, yes 1" in thickness. The arrows lay flat and don't float around making much noise. The only problem is it's too pretty for the woods. It is actually shown on the attached website along with the matching arm brace makes a string keeper to match.
Photobucket is down now or I would post 3 pictures.

FeatherFletch, the EFA mini bowquivers are made for the archer/hunters who don't want their bow to feel weighted down or off balance, and don't want their shot to be altered by the extra weight.

The 3 arrow model is usually just under 4 ounces, and the 4 arrow model is just over 4 ounces. It's as close to shooting barebow as you can get, and yet have the convenience of a bowquiver.

Some guys use a heavier quiver, learn to adjust to it, and even think of it as a stabilizer. Each to his own. There are a lot of guys who prefer to shoot without stabilizers, etc.

There are draw backs too all quivers! You just have to decide on one that is the least compromise for you. I made my own back quiver so it fits me. I will use it for some hunting and for shoots. When I go elk and deer hunting I will put my Selway on my bow. I like the idea of all my weapons in my hands. It provides for less movement and quieter. A side or back quiver will hit brush. If you go with a back quiver line the bottom and around the opening with fur or sheepskin to quiet arrows. I love the look and feel of a backquiver and it frees up your bow!

My primary hunting quiver is a Jack Bowers side stalker. Very versatile and you can quickly change it's position. Now if I'm hunting squirrels, I'll want to carry a lot more arrows and I'll use a back quiver. My 3D quiver is a cool back 'tube' quiver made from a yucca plant by our EstLA brother, Sal Ochoa. I think Sal is always one of the last guys to bed every night at MOJam.

I like the idea of the Quiver Caddy's. Looks like i could use the quivers from my wheele days and save some $.  Where an I find them. Do the come wraped in leather or is that something that you added
