So I just got a HH and I've been tossing around the idea of a bow quiver. Just wondering what you guys would suggest. No bolt ons as I will not drill my bow. And if anyone has any suggestions or experience with broad head hip quivers.  Thanks.

If you MUST use a bow quiver on a Hill style bow, check Eagle's Flight Archery, a sponsor here.

just seems wrong though don't it.....

I've been using a Great Northern for many years on my longbows, including my Hill styles.  It has always worked great for me.

If you must you a bow quiver I would second the Eagles Flight quiver, there are a quality product and their customer service is the best.

I tried my Thunderhorn on a couple of mine and they'd start to vibrate and get noisy after two shots....no matter how tight I strapped them.  Have an EFA on its' way.  That being said....glad I've got options in leather.     :thumbsup:

with any trad bow, you will need to experiment with quivers to see what will work best for you and your hunting.  

there is NO substitute for trialing out different kinds of quivers.  

and not just in yer living room in or back yard - out in the field, in the bush, up a tree.

i use both bow and side stalker quivers for hunting - each has its place.  while i love the look of a back quiver and a hill longbow, they just don't work best for me in field.  ymmv.

my bow quiver of choice is 4 or 5 arrow efa ...





my side stalker quiver is home made ...

My bow quiver of choice with my Howard Hill long bows is the large EFA strap on with wing and totem. I'm not a back quiver fan and I find that over the shoulder quivers(Asbell type) do not work as well with my style of hunting; I carry in my Guille and a seat and the over the shoulder quiver seems to always be in the way. A side quiver will work on occasions, but the EFA quiver mentioned above works perfectly all the time.It might not be traditional enough for some but it works for me. To each his own. Shoot straight and "Keep'UM Sharp".

I don't use a bow quiver often on my Hills. I do have a 3-arrow EFA that works very well with them.

My EFA has the older attachment style (no buckle) and seems more streamline to me tham the newer style (which I have also, and use it on wider limbed bows).

I like a Great Northern kickback quiver on my Hill bow. For me, the extra weight of the quiver turns a Hill bow into a lean mean hunting machine.

Well I actually received a hand made back quiver as a birthday present so my problems are solved. Thanks for all the input guys.

I see you got the back quiver but I'm posting this for any searchers checking previous threads.... if you plan on removing it while hunting do not buy anything with Velcro, most that use Velcro won't mention it in the description because its so LOUD and unnatural sounding removing in the woods...    only get one that's rubber mounted like the Great Northern bow quiver.  

now there's two category's of Bow quivers I think,,,,, 1 keeps the fletching tight and close together.......  the 2nd keeps the fletching all fanned apart usually in a long row like the selway's..  what you need to consider is will the last arrow's fletch hit your pants or clothes when you raise the bow to shoot in certain positions.... reality, I was once sitting under a small pine and had a buck and doe coming in perfect maybe 18yds,, I go to lift my bow and scrape that bottom fletch on my pants and spooked both deer... that selway style (thunderhorn) has been laying near that pine tree getting eating by mice ever since.

I had and loved an EFA 4 arrow quiver, but due to the limb trapping on my Schulz I could not get it to stay in place on that bow. So I went back to the great northern, which is still probably my favorite quiver!

A lightweight quiver on a hill bow is the only way I would do it. We recommend using the Totem shaft to connect the hood and arrow gripper, as Rob shows on his bow. It adds almost nothing to the weight of it and will make the quiver more solid on a longbow limb fadeout that can be hard to grip.
