Title: Fox fur back quiver
Post by: macksdad on December 25, 2011, 07:10:00 PM

I got a real nice red fox today. Got him skinned out and I wanna make a back quiver. I got this fox on my families farm on christmas day so not likely to forget this one. Any body got any pics or ideas on how to make it into a back quiver I would love to see or hear how . I did case skin the fur figured this would be best. Very minimal damage to the fur from my arrow.

No, but that's cool!  When I was about 11 or 12 I think it was I trapped my first grey fox on Christmas morning.  It was pretty cool!

I just slipped my old leather backquiver into the case and sewed and glued the fur over the edge of the mouth.

Did you flesh and salt it already? I'd tan it and stuff an old leather quiver in there as mentioned.

As mentioned tan it and slide a back quiver inside.  I like to use Barge Cement to tie the hide to the quiver.  I made one for my daughter last year.
