        I am making an arrow quiver out of a springbok skin, does any one have any tips, advice or ideas I could use. This will be my first time and I’d like to get it right. Please help if you can.

          Back quiver or hip quiver?

            Make sure you build mock-up out of cardboard or cheap leather to finalize your design before you cut up the good stuff.
            I agonized over the design of my quiver for a long time, and I don’t regret it.

              I think I’m gonna go with a back quiver. I like the balance and feel of my hickory bow, and don’t know what a bow quiver would do to that. I also really like the back quiver.

              I am right there with ya. I am planning it out and designing it with paper, card board, and drawings. I am going to use cheap leather first (which is great advice by the way), I don’t want to ruin that beautiful Springbok skin.

                Make sure you take plenty of photos of the whole process. I’d love to see how you put this together. dwc
