Ditto to hawk and Pat, back quivers can be uncomfortable and in the way if carrying a back pack. a well made plainstsyle is the way to go for sure.

  Thanks to all, And your input.  I am going to search the Plains Style quivers along with a few i got from stickbow.  Anyone else that has any ideas would be great. Thanks again.

Welcome! I personally am a huge fan of the back quiver. I use them for everything, as they're jsut what I've always used. I tink they're the fastest on the shot, and if made properly, don't have any problems for stalking (I don't hunt from trees). Howard Hill only used back quivers, and I can't blame him. Once you get used to them, they seem perfect.

But I'll make two notes. I refuse to use a back quiver unless it's enough of an oval to collapse onto my back, and won't hunt with it unless it has a piece of deer hide, with the fur thick, on the bottom to silence and protect the broadheads.

I make mine from deerskin, untanned, with the hair still on. The thinner skins seem to be hte best material for back quivers in my opinion. Below is the one I'm currently using, from a deer I shot last year druing rifle season.

 The only back quivers I use have two straps so the quiver sits inthe center of my back.

Ryano:
Welcome to PA! I prefer a bow quiver myself.  ;D
