Hip Quivers

[footed shaft]

As lots of you know my son aquired a nearly new Vixen a couple weeks ago from a very generous member
I want to keep the weight down on the bow so i have opted to use a hip quiver for him. Anyone have suggestions for hip quivers that work well with bolts?? Leather, vinyl i don't care, i just want them to hold a bolt solidly.
Thanks Bill ( and Brandon)

Bill,

I have found that just running a belt through the bow quiver worked best for me on crossbow bolts.

There is another one that is just almost flat with the pocket for the head & the rubber grippers that I have used.(I will try & find a link to it)

I do have a plastic rotary one that I used in my compound days that would probably work pretty good as well, but i did find it was noisy when walking through the bush.

An inexpensive one like this works fine -

I bought one similar to the one Wabi posted, but then decided to carry the quiver in my hunting bag that goes over my shoulder. Here are some other inexpensive hip quivers.

I am even cheaper than that I have a cardboard tube with Camo material around it and it slings over my shoulder.
Here it is beside my bow

I bought this exact quiver but found the boits falling out so i removed the Styrofoam block that the broadheads sat it, cut off the rubber holders at the top, then found that the excalibur quiver fit inside it perfectly. one bolt to attach the excal quiver to the hip quiver and you essentially convert the security of the excal quiver to the convenience of a hip quiver. I have used it for four seasons now and have not dropped a bolt yet. hope this helps.

Hey everyone
I have made some similar to Dereck's except instead of cardboard, I use plastic canvas that cross-stitcher's use. You can get it in the "notions" section of Walmart or any craft store. It's a little better than cardboard in that if it gets wet it won't dissolve. You can make several for just a few bucks.

The one that wabi posted is the one I was thinking of

I was out of town all day but will try & get a pick of the one I have tomorrow.

I use the Kwikee 3 Arrow quiver, I just attached the bracket to a piece of leather and then I made some loop holes for my belt. I can quickly remove the quiver from my hip when I want to sit down.

I like the looks of that Maritimer.

Look up the Sidewinder Quiver Adapter. I have one made by Vista but TenPoint sells them now. Works pretty good. I found the one I have on closeout for $12.

Here's a quiver i made from 4" drain line a piece of foam some rubber for the bottom and to end caps.
I took a 4"x4" piece of foam in the top. You just shove the arrow up in the quiver nock first the pressure of the foam holds the arrows tight. The broad head point rest on the rubber pad. I used this quiver all the time with my trad bows. I just cut it into and slid it inside its self some glue and a couple of screws and its a crossbow quiver. I tied it to a turkey vest.
Now i use a Gameplan Spot-N-Stock.

Jim22, i didn't see a quiver on that site at all!!!! lol
I may just pick up that adaptor. Bill

[Jim22]

footed shaft, no it doesn't come with a quiver, just the adapter then you attach any quiver you want. I am using an Excal quiver with mine.
