Exquisite Quivers? :)
Question:
Maybe my subject is worded badly..
I am looking for a not-so-normal quiver. Basically, I am looking for either a leather, or an animal-skin Back quiver. I really prefer the back quiver. For the leather, I don’t mean like the cheap, bright looking leather. I like the old, dark, aged looking leather. Or any type of animal or critter skin. Honestly, a snake or alligator skinned quiver would be truly amazing. Or, a "elf" type one, like Legolas’ from Lord of the Rings. Anyways, if anyone has any suggestions or can point me in a good direction, I would appreaciate it very much. Thanks, Bobby

I know of a back quiver made from two red fox skins that were just taken as a trade by Boorman Archery in New Westminster, B.C. Canada. The telephone number is 604-524-1674 and they are open 10am to 5 pm PST tomorrow(Tuesday). Hope this helps.

Try this link: http://horsebows.com/ The site only addresses their bows, as far as I can tell, but one of their reps was at the NFAA Marked 3-D shoot, in Redding California, last year. They had some BEAUTIFUL leather quivers and accessory pouches, including back quivers. Very UNIQUE.

If you have some free money, you could try looking up a saddler who does tooling. A quiver pattern isn’t that difficult to produce, and you could choose your own decorative design… – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – > Maybe my subject is worded badly..

The leather shop in Austin has a huge supply of different styles of leather including some bright colors, some kits of tools, and some patterns for quivers you can use for starters. perhaps there is a leather shop in your yaller pages? – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – > If you have some free money, you could try looking up a saddler who > does tooling.

I know of a person who will make you about anything you want out of leather or hides. He works as a leather worker and shoe repair. I’ve seen some of his leather work and it’s quite good. I’m sure prices would vary as the price of leather did. Lemme know if you want his phone #.

Yes, the horsearchery folks at http://www.horsearchery.com/ are the ones I meant to recommend when I said horsebow instead. I saw their products at Redding CA, and they were truly beautiful. I am not a "traditional" shooter (I shoot compound freestyle), but I wanted their quiver anyway!
