Title: pant-leg quiver
Post by: britt on April 11, 2015, 05:37:00 PM
Its time to build a new back quiver. Can someone post some pics of a quiver made from a pant leg. Or directions? Thanks.

When I first got into archery & bowhunting (back in the stone age) I made back quivers out the pants legs of old jeans all the time.

Did that for a looooooooong time, and then I upgraded to making my own bow quivers out of the soles of old shoes, and flip flops.

Sorry, no pictures, but it's easy. You'll figure it out.

Cut the leg off at the crotch. Fold that end over about an inch and sew it around the edge,  Sew the ankle end closed entirely.  Run a strap from the open thgh to the closed ankle.  Fini.

Good from jeans.  But if you use cargo pants, you get a carryall pocket too!

Pant legs make great "plains indian" style side quivers as well.

My wife sewed up a lot of bowsocks from bluejeans. They work great for that, along with keeping the rear pocket on with a tab of velcour to store stuff!

The coolest looking back quiver I saw, was made from a shag carpet remnant. A guy was wearing it at the GLLI in 1986!
