Made this back quiver for Archery Hall of Fame Ceremony
I finished this back quiver last night. It will be auctioned off in a couple of weeks at The Archery Hall of Fame induction ceremony in Springfield, MO. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. All the black leather is american bison and all the gold leather is deer except for the arrowhead which is bison too. The reddish-brown leather outlining the emblem and arrowhead is leather from an elephant's ear. It is also on the straps. The reddish-brown bands at the top and bottom of the quiver are carp hide. I carved the strap buttons out of antler material I took off a buck I killed with my longbow. Every needle hole was punched by hand and every stitch was sewn by hand using artificial sinew. Hopefully, it will make a little money for the museum.

All I can say is WOW
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Thank you all for the kind words! The auctioneer for the event said he was already thinking of a starting number for this quiver and it wasn't a small one. Uncle Ted and his wife are going to be at this shindig. Maybe he'll fork over some of that rock-n-roll money and take it home with him.
