Title: Plains style quiver
Post by: lisjak on March 17, 2010, 11:39:11 am

I would ask all plains style quiver users that they write some words about advantages and also disadvantages of plains quivers. Please tell me if you are using full covered plains quiver or quiver with exposed fletching. I have quiver with exposed fletching, and somethimes all arrows fall out when I lean forward. How do you solve this problem?
How do you carry quiver ( right side, left side, back....)?
Please insert also some photo of your quiver.

Thank you!

The problem is the attachment of the shoulderstrap to the quiver. It must be done in that way, that the side where the fletches looches look out must hang higher.

You could put a loop of sheep skin/wool around the inside opening if your quiver is to loose?
Here are some of mine;

I normally use mine on my right hip but sometimes use it on the other side like this;

Thanks for your time.

I carry mine on my left side with the fletches covered. I can crawl through the brush without snagging.
