quiver suggestions..

[aero86]

I was given a buckskin that is like 25 years old a week ago and didnt know what I wanted to do with it.  I decided to make a quiver.  What do you guys suggest?  Id like a big one, that holds a lot, and also a bag on the side for "stuff".   Also, has anyone ever made or thought of a double quiver? Like one side for field points, one side for stone heads?  Anyways, if I'm gonna make just one big one, what dimensions should I use?  Hope this isn't too confusing guys!

What kind of quiver do you want to make?
   What I do for a pattern is get a couple of sheets of poster paper and measure and cut out the pieces and staple the quiver together. Trim a little here or there to make it fit and feel right and when it's ready take the staples out and you have a pattern.
  Size-wise for a back quiver, make it deep enough for your arrows with the fletching outside of the quiver and with enough leather to fold over the top edge as a stiffener around the opening. For a plains style side quiver make it deep enough so only the arrow nock sticks out the end.
  Check out the "How To" section and see what you can find. Lots of good info there on all types of quivers.

this has become my favorite style. i made a lot of different quivers from back to hip. after i made this one i stopped cause i found what worked. it can be worn on the back or plains style. the arrows come through the opening on the side. only problem i ran into with this quiver is its so good for stalking and removing the arrow without being seen i mistakenly left a blunt in there when i was hunting and shot an 8 pointer with a 1" wooden blunt. afterword both the buck and i could be heard laughing our butts off.

I like these ones also...and I am going to have to try to make one of My Own....I can't afford to shell out $250.00 for a Quiver...

looks nice.  i may have to make a little one like that.  and then one that holds a couple dozen for battle...

 Mike, I used to have one of those monsters like in your first picture. I paid $125 on Ebay. It was too big and heavy. I traded it to Chris Cade.

Here is one of the kind that I make. Simple, functional, and cheap.
