Back Quiver

[BravoHunter]

Anybody using a back quiver?

What is the preferred quiver while in the saddle, on the bow or strapped to the tree?

Been pondering it but I like to have a quiver on my bow. I’ve been thinking of a way to integrate a back quiver to carry sticks and platform...that’ll be a winter project.

I used to carry a cat quiver because I hated a quiver on my bow but, then I found Eagles Flight Archery quivers. They are so light that you barely notice they are there. I have been using them for about a year. I got used to it being on my bow pretty quickly.

I don’t but it seems a real possibility. I prefer a bow Quiver for a lot of reasons.

+1 for Eagles Flight quivers. I got the 4 arrow setup and I hardly notice it’s on there. I had a Selway slide on quiver for forever, the 6 arrow model I believe, and it was a tad too heavy for my liking. Great quiver but I don’t need that many arrows/extra weight.

I just ordered an Eagles Flight 4 arrow. I think I'll also try out the Bateman Quiver Mate bow quiver side adapter on my existing quivers.

Thanks to all for your great advice. Happy hunting!

I flop back and forth from a bow quiver to a G Fred Asbell Shoulder Style. I really like both. I do like the bow quiver to hide my face behind when staring down a fat doe that is too smart for her own good..

I prefer a bow quiver that I take off once I am up in the tree. I've never used a Cat Quiver but I have seen them in action and like the concept but, they are probably more suitable for a stand hunter or still hunter.

No bow quivers for me when deer hunting. I use either a Palmer Bow Mate Elite quiver or a Safari Tuff Duiker both are tube style shoulder/side quivers. The bow mate is fairly heavy duty with a pocket and webbing to attach stuff to it. I have also incorporated a long bow holder and bow hook into mine so that it can hold my bow while packing in and while hunting.

I've always used a bow quiver but since it usually rains when I hunt, wet feathers were always an issue. A couple years ago I got a Safari Tuff quiver that I really like. It is quiet, keeps everything dry, has a pouch for extra glove, string, etc, and has a carry strap. Highly recommend it. It's this one but I don't remember it being this expensive. Inflation I guess.....

Reviving this. Awhile ago, @always89y and a bunch more of yall egger-on-ers told me to pick up a recurve. Since then, I've had a real fun time with it. So much so that I'm considering taking it onto the woods with me this season.

A couple days ago @JSEXTON23 helped me setup an arrow that flies pretty well out of my stickbow. Just so happens to be the same arrow that I shoot from both my compounds. Now I'm looking at a way to centralize my arrows as a single grab-and-go package because it sucks having to remove my arrows from one bow mounted quiver and put them into another bow mounted quiver depending on the bow I want to take out. I got to looking at a back quiver with a pouch on it because it seemed like I could pack all my spaghetti string minimalist crap into it and just carry one thing and a bow (and a platform, dern it ) instead of a bag and a separate quiver. My mind says that once I'm in setup in a tree, the whole thing could be attached to the tree in front of me (single strap around the tree) similar to a CGM WURDITGO.

Here's what I'd like help on... My areas of concern are noise from shafts touching and broadheads clanking around against each other. So if I buy a quiver like this, what can I do to quiet it down?

 

[Heydeerman]

A back Quiver that is worn properly will keep the arrows quiet. It should be snug on the back and the middle collapse or flatten around the arrows. Some guys will put foam in the bottom then stick the heads in it to protect the edge on the head.

Another option you might already be aware of but, just in case you not is the Catquiver line of back quivers. They keep you arrow separate and have several different models.

My buddy has a catquiver that I always liked the look of, and it would honestly be perfect for running a trad bow saddle hunting. There's a part of me that wishes I hadn't run his over.

I have hunted with a back quiver for years when I went thru my longbow phase I use to use foam peanuts about 3” deep in the bottom and carried 4 broadheads and 2 skwerl arrahs and as long as it conforms to your back you will be fine for noise don’t use them anymore. A bow quiver is the key now specially for saddle hunting. Shoot last back quiver I made is just holding arrows in my wall. I should sell that as it gets in my way a lot when I’m in my room working on gear

This is good. @always89y suggested oatmeal in the bottom. At least that way I'd have breakfast in the tree with me too

As long as it don’t get to soggy LOL

Can always use a side quiver like I made for @always89y I think he used it some last year and liked it very adjustable

Yeah but where's the molle? I NEED MORE MOLLE BABY!
