Title: My first few quivers
Post by: Bigbadad on September 28, 2011, 03:15:33 pm

Hi all from Germany!
Here are a few of my first attempts at building quivers.
The first was a wild boar skin, that I picked up at a flea market for ca. $16.
The second is a road-kill badger, that was given tome by a German hunter, who had found it.
Thirdly, a 1.6 litre drinking horn, that only holds about 6 arrows, but doubles up as a great beer mug round the camp fire!!!!

Feel free Frank!
They say that copying something is the highest praise you can give!
Let's see your Badger when he's done!
Where are you based?

Aha!
I'm in Göttingen.
Shoots are few and far between here.
The closest is 1/2 hour drive and the next over an hour away!
And when there's something going on, it's usually on the weekend and
I work probably on about 40 weekends per year, so most of my shooting is done in the summer holidays, with the occasional ausnahme!
