Title: DIY bow quiver
Post by: Apex Predator on October 11, 2012, 09:50:00 AM
Just acquired a new bow!  She's a 2001 (50th Anniversary edition) Gail Martin Signature Take-Down.  I wanted a bow quiver, so thought I could make one.  Not perfect, but quite functional.  I think I may connect the two halves, so it'll be easier to take off while on stand.  The hood is made from two pieces of bamboo. The arrow gripper is off an old quiver that I had.

Marty, how much weight does the quiver add to the bow with and without arrows?

It's definitely heavier than some of the light weight quivers out there.  I'd say 8-10 oz without arrows, but just guessing.
