        Been using it for a couple months now, and love it. High quality construction and materials. Big Jim makes a sweet side quiver:

          I just received 3 books you recommended today. The comment I got was “tell that hammer guy your on fixed income”!

          This next request ain’t gonna be easy:D

          By the way–that hammock seat you recommended is great. Have used it for last 5 days on Turkey. What a simple yet functional piece of gear.

          Think I will wait for a few days to start the psych on the quiver8) That is a beauty.

            Mike –

            Glad you like the hammock seat. While I really do try to keep my hunting pack as minimal as possible, that seat has earned a place strapped to the outside of my pack and goes with me just about everywhere in the woods now. It’s small and light, and allows me to sit comdfortably (and thus patiently) for much longer than parking my bony @$$ on a log. I certainly see a lot more animals when I sit for long periods of time in the right places. I used it earlier this week for a couple days of turkey hunting and loved it.

            As far as the quiver goes, my Duiker is still my “go to” hunting quiver for most things, but I’ve always wanted a nice, classy leather one as well, for stumping and small game. And this one fits the bill perfectly.

              Do you have a link to that Duiker quiver?

                Here ya go, Mike:

                They also make a basic “Duiker” model that does not include the accessory pocket or the storm cover. In my opinion, those two things are definitely worth the extra $20.

                And of course, if you want more capacity, their Arrowmaster is the way to go.

                  Mike,

                  I have the Duiker as well and it is a great quiver. I have the storm cover but no pocket. Really nice quality and fuctionallity for me. I Like it a lot.

                    OK now, what about that perty pocket quiver you was showin’ off the other day, eh? I reckon you look like a porcupine with all them quivers hangin’ about your person chuck full of arrows whilst you stalk that wily stump! 😆 8)

                        Bruce, mine is similar that I got from Raptor Archery years ago. I added the snap on the strap so I can slip the quiver off easily in case I get into super stealth mode and I put an arrow gripper on the outside at the top. That’s where I keep a judo point for easy access.

                        All the little holes I’ve made because sometime I attach a belt knife on the outside for easy access. Makes me feel better when I’m pig hunting to have a knife close to hand. False sense of security maybe but…..you neva,neva know:D

                          Bruce–Thanks my friend I have been searching for an insightful response to the “you already have 3 quivers” statement.:lol::lol:

                            R2 I like that judo clip on the outside of the quiver for the judo idea, I am going to add that to my Dukier for this fall. When it comes to adding new equipment, I just tell the wife every craftsman know you need the right tools for the job to end up with a quality product. And I remind her that in her quest to create a perfect husband, her job was made much easier because she started with some of the finest materials that were available.:lol:
