The Champion's "back" quiver is actually very well designed as it can be setup to use as either a left or right handed, back quiver, or hip quiver in either a vertical or diagonal fashion. I did actually use it a couple times while it was in my position as a "long arrow" hip quiver (but only a time or two). <br>
<br>For my regular "short arrows" I made a diagonal hip quiver dyed blue with a white spike on it. But as I didn't put the words on it, and kinda liked it, I kinda kept it and still use it (sorry).<br><br>Cog also created a new quiver of similar design for the Royal Archer, which I have yet to actually see, but the photos look great.<br>

This is correct. There are two quivers. The Handbow quiver is of the<br>
Back Quiver style, and was commissioned by Lorenzo (I forget who made<br>
it, just that Lorenzo had it commissioned in the style that Lorenzo<br>
preferred) when Lorenzo was champion, so that the office had regalia.<br>
<br>
When I won, I was the 2nd crossbowman, and while, like my predecessor, I<br>
also shot recurve, I realized that I didn't have an 'every day' quiver<br>
like a handbowman would.<br>
<br>
Therefore, I made a Crossbow quiver for the champions. (Leg style, as<br>
that's what I myself wore) ... It was expected, perhaps, that future<br>
champions might make more quivers, as desired, to match their own<br>
preferred style. (Perhaps a side-quiver for crossbows, a belt-quiver<br>
for handbows, etc) as needed. And eventually we'd have a plethora of<br>
quivers to pass on.<br>
<br>
For now, there are just the two though.<br>
<br>
Hopefully, in someone's safe keeping.<br>
<br>
Siegfried - Who is sorely out of his 'best form', but looking forward to<br>
competing for the chance to wear that quiver again soon.<br>
