Default RE: Quivers??

For 3-D I use a Cedar Ridge hip quiver by Art Vincent, and am trying out his new pocket quiver with a pouch. Really liking it so far--it may become my 3-D quiver. Fits in the back pocket, with a pouch big enough for an extra glove and several other goodies.

For hunting, I use a cheap hip quiver I got at Wal-Mart, but have started wearing my belt over my shoulder, kinda GFA style.

I don't like the way a bow quiver makes my longbow feel--too off-balance. I've tried umpteem other quivers, and all had too many drawbacks for me and where I hunt. I dumped Lakota style quivers going through the brush. Cat quivers don't fit me at all--way too uncomfortable (I'm a "full figured" guy). Back quivers are too noisy for hunting, too easy to dump crawling through thick stuff, and too hot in the summer for 3-D. I had a full pelt badger (claws and all)similar to the coyote (even had glass taxidermist eyes--looked wicked), but it was like wearing a portable sauna.

I plan to try a Simmons Rotary Quiver next--that's the only style I haven't tried yet, at least that I know of. I'm too old and ugly to worry about looking "cool"--I just want something that's comfortable and works good!
