I'm looking for a fairly nice leather back quiver that I can use, but all the ones I've found online are at a price that made me wince. I know I can't expect something good REALLY cheap, but I think $150 is a bit much for something that goes mainly towards costuming. Can anyone direct me to a place where I could fine an inexpensive quiver?

Um, the top and bottom links aren't for arrow quivers, they are meant to hold a bow that's used to play a string bass, the musical instrument. Though I suppose they could be modified a bit to fit the purpose.

You should have searched for archery quivers, like the title of the thread, not bow quivers, the bow for archery does not go in a quiver, only the arrows do. tongue I used to compete in archery in college. My quiver clipped to my belt, or pants, you can't really have things hanging from your back or should in competition.

Here's a simple one:

If you know anyone with leather crafting skills, this would be very easy to make.

Here are a few more under $50:

Do and ebay search, as well.

This whole thing is mainly for costuming (I'm really an amateur archer and not at ALL in any sort of competition) so I do want the back quiver. I checked ebay, but I didn't find all that much. Thanks for the links!

If you don't mind it being black and shiny, The Archery Centre does a back quiver for £15.95.

http://www.archery-centre.co.uk


Failing that, Quicks may have something suitable, and it's worth taking a look through their on-line catalogue. Last I heard, they had something slightly classier for about a quid or two more than The Archery Centre.

It might also be worth asking around your archery club. If anybody's going to know what's easily available in your area, it's your local string-twangers (I'm an archer myself, I can get away with calling other archers that! tongue ).


Hope this helps!
