That is cool. Please post it on the "homemade" topic. We can collect as much stuff as possible.

Handy idea !!

I had a pse crossbow that had a bag like that as an option. The stock was an aluminum bull pup affair. The bag was secured onto the top and bottom rods of the stock.

I can't take full credit for it, it was the wife's handy work :D
The case is 2 pieces, one for the bow, with or without quiver, the second is for the quiver, with or without the case.. It has nice little holes so I can still attach my shoulder strap for transport.
I thought the quiver case would be handy for days of freezing rain or something like that.. The quiver case also has little straps on top to slide in branches native to where I am hunting (or corn stalks) for a bit more cover for ground shooting.
3 pictures, quiver case off and on.. As you have guessed my quiver mounts above the scope.
3rd photo is the quiver case, looks bulkier than it is, I just don't like that my camo doesn't match.. Obviously not there all the time, but who knows, I may find a use for it in the field.

Quiver cover is a great idea. Is your wife getting into the business? :lol:

VixChix is right . . .for the next 20 years, she will have no time. :o
Seriously, staying home with the little one . . .that's insane . . .I had to do that for three weeks between jobs. I can honestly say, it's very hard work. I thought I would take a couple of weeks off, yeah right! :wink:

This is our third :D We don't like spare time, it cuts into the fun.. We do our best work outdoors.
4, 3 and one to come.. She is a stay at home Mom, and for the most part I am fortunate enough to be a stay at home Dad.. I work, but my kids would never know it. :)
This is even on topic, right? I made these too (not the big one in the middle :wink: )

Pydpiper,
Very cool. Looks like a cottage industry in the making. If you decide to make them for sale send me a PM. I will buy one.

Kendo..
If you are referring to the case, it actually cost me more to make that thing than it would have to buy one, and outside of fitting around the GP mount is probably not as nice of material as a factory made case... I only did it this way because my son demanded that if I had a case he must have one too, so making our own was the only option if they were to match.
Is it the case that you meant, because the kids arent for sale. :wink:
Thanks for he compliment though, either way.

Grizz, thanks, I do feel like a millionaire, it will cost me dearly in the future to take the time away from work I am now, but I think it will be worth it.
