Arrow Quivers 

As a new archer, you give me a lot of good points ! Thanks for the review!

Man, thank you very much for the reviews on this video ... I was really wanting to know about Kratarc Field Quiver! Even though it is simple, it meets what it proposes. I'm going to buy one and put neoprene in the tubes to cushion the noise from the loose arrows! A big hug from this archer friend of Brazil!

I have a back quiver kind of like yours. Whenever I'm at the range and go to retrieve my arrows I find it relatively easy to unfastened it, leave hanging on my arm, remove the arrows and placing them back in the quiver one at a time. Again that works for me and I don't really have any trouble reaching back to pull the arrows out. I actually prefer being able to get a hold of the nock, fletched end so I can almost immediately and comfortably nock the arrow. I know it's plenty much personal preference though.

Great informative video. I like your cross necklace. If you don’t mind me asking where might I find one like it? Sorry for the off the wall question but I haven’t been able to find one that I like. God bless 🙏

Would wearing the first quiver rotated on the belt more behind you (so the arrows stuck out to your right) work? I haven't bought a quiver yet, but that's the way it feels like would fit me best? I think haha.

What if you lined the inside of the top of the tubes with felt or something similar?

Thanks for covering this issue...I make mine out of leather! C Ya on the trail!!!

My opinion, for what it's worth is to have rwo, maybe three quivers. Field/3d shooting I use a bow attached quiver. Shooting online targets at my club use hip type. Back quiver in the yard, just to look cool and such 😂😂😂

Aanii, greetings, I made my quiver outta leather n rabbit fur, just stuff I already had round my house, plus added a possible's bag on the side for string wax, extra bow string, plus fringed the whole quiver bottom side, I never carry my quiver on my back, always on my side, cuz I hunt alot n it's just easier for me, I made my quiver in the style of my people, the anishnabe people, the waboose (rabbit ) fur is for round the top to quiet the arrows , it's the only quiver I use ,just my two cents, lol, great topic tho, n video, shakyjake out.

I don't care for bow mounted quivers, I always use a back quiver. I prefer a clean line bare bow, I know, I know, for hunting people worry about brush, noise etc. I'm just a common bow shooter, split finger, etc, works for me. But everyone for their own liking's. Scott I enjoy all your videos buddy keep up the good work.

A little felt or some other soft material glued around the top part of the tubes might quiet things down. I actually have two Kratarc brand quivers. The four tube hip quiver (which I'm now going to take my own advice and quiet with something soft) and I've recently purchased the three strap back quiver from them with molle attachment capability for added pouches and what not. Makes it a lot more customizable for individual needs.

You should check out the field quiver from Kifaru!

I purchased several types of quivers while trying to decide which one is for me. Determined I favor a side quiver. I want to like a back quiver, but find I have difficulty pulling the arrows out.

I was much better with a .22 rifle than with my bow. Not sure I could do any shooting these days, with my rheumatoid arthritis. I like the over-the-shoulder one. Because Legolas. (and the cowboys and Indians movies.)

I’m just getting back into archery and your video help me choose the style quiver I’m going to use. Just wanted to say Tks for helping

Hey Scott, just an update on the back quiver. Didn't have any 1/4" ply lying around, bit I did have some scraps of 1/2" "Hardy Backer" from when I did the tile floor in my kitchen. Once I shaped it to the contour of the quiver, it fit perfectly when pressed down into the bottom. Now I just have to find something to line the tubes in the side quiver...I'm thinking maybe some old black wool socks may be an easy option...we'll see.

Just got a back quiver for Christmas, was wondering how to wear it- thanks.

Fantastic review! Was wanting a target quiver with the arrows inclined forward but have changed my mind. Thank you!

Very nice video I was curious about quivers I have a question for you about strings I have a Galaxy sage elite and I was thinking about putting a you string on it and I don't know what kind of string to put on it

Hi Scott, I shoot trad archery with carbon arrows, (not hunting. That is illegal in England). I've tried the forward facing tubed quiver and had the same problem as you. Never tried a back quiver but during lockdown I made a leather rearward facing field quiver and it is perfect. I was hoping I could send a pic over to you but it seems that is not possible on here. I have since made three more for friends and they all seem to enjoy them. Great videos bud.

For the bottom of my quivers, I'm going to try a piece of 1/4" plywood cut to shape or plastic from a milk jug, as this won't materially add to the weight of the quiver and will also protect the bottom from broadheads. Again, a piece of soft material on top of this will keep the noise to a minimum.

Great video. Love the intro!!!

Thanks Mike. 50 years ago when My Dad taught me archery, target shooting was always practice for hunting. Everyone in our archery hunting club practiced frequently. Everyone preferred back quivers, for several reasons. All back quivers back then were leather, but importantly they were stiffer and there were at least two rubber or leather coated round rods that connected to the sides, that opened up the top of the quiver into an oval shape, and somewhat divided up the arrows. Easy to insert arrows without looking. Second, everyone put some amount of either hay or excelsior (long thin wood shavings in the quiver. That randomly separated the arrows and greatly reduced noise. Also, rarely was anyone carrying more than 6-8 arrows. If you couldn’t get your hunting done with a few, you need much more practice. Fit. Most archer/hunters we knew chose quivers that fit diagonally across the back (not 45 degrees) @15-25 degrees, which allowed more freedom of arm-to-shaft removal/insertion into the quiver. As a product designer, I am certain one could easily design a quiet, reinforced rigid, formed, anatomically convenient, water resistant Cordura fabric quiver, with similar attributes at a fraction of the weight. Hope this helps.
