Leather arm thingy & bow quiver

<< < (3/5) > >>

HatchA:
I like those very much!  The bow quiver is inspired!!

Lombard:
Cool project. Ain't it nice to make your own tackle?

zenmonkeyman:
Thanks for the words, guys!  It IS very nice to make my own tackle.  Gotta make some more stuff before hunting season, which is coming right up.

Can't take credit for the idea, as I mentioned the last Primitive Archer mag had pics of a similar bow quiver.  Mickey Lotz deserves your kudos, even if I think mine is better.  ;)

aero86:
dude.. that primitive bow quiver is nice!  i might have to try that out

Mickey:
Thanks for the Kudos Zenmonkeyman.

I made and have been hunting with that type of quiver for close to 10 years now I suppose. I call it a "Floppy Quiver". I originally made it to hold one arrow which I wrote about in the Fall 2006 Issue called "Simplified Bow Hunting". Later I had a 2 arrow version sewn up so I could carry a small game/practice arrow. I can't stand carrying a metal/plastic 4 or 5 arrow quiver on my bows anymore. Just adds so much weight and makes it feel one side heavy.The floppy quiver itself adds but an ounce or two to the bow, and if you are carrying only one ot two arrows, the whole setup adds little weight to the weight of the bow, making it easy to carry through the woods all day without getting tired. Used to have instructions on my website before all the info was lost on how to make them and the Floppy Arra Rest (which i see you are also using on your bow). Good deal.

Happy Hunting

Mickey
