Does anyone make a traditional looking quiver that attaches like a quickie quiver?

Not that I’m aware of but I’ve seen pictures of Kwikees with the hoods covered with leather giving them a more traditional look.

What do you consider a traditional looking quiver?

As it applies to traditional archery, I don't think anything is more traditional than a Bear bow quiver or a simple Kwikee. Not sure what others ideas are when it comes to 'traditional'. The archery genre has lots of choices that were here for many decades.

Any quiver that attaches w/ bolts or screws where the bow has to be drilled, doesn't seem too traditional to me, just sayin....Gotta strap it on w/ sinew and leather, and be made from buffalo hide!;^)

Tight Spot quivers are costly. I yanked this one off something I don't shoot. Thanks for the post as it reminded me of it. Rooty

The word traditional has a wide range. Primitive is another word. No need to get bogged down in terms. Leather and skins can be will stick to most. Rooty

I've always thought the Quickie and Bear type quivers that mount with a bracket and 2 small screws were flimsy and let the arrows vibrate a lot (oscillate?)on the bow. Much better is the side mount with a bushing in both upper and lower ends of the riser. I am quite fond of the Great Northern style and the strap-on style too. That requires no drilling or bushing installation. Expenxive, yes, but you will only need to buy it once.

The Bear and the kwikee are “traditional “. They were the first. Now maybe some might consider the primitive way of making a groove in the back of the bow as the first bowquiver but that’s going to far for me. The bow quiver evolved to screws and bolts because the Bears tended to be noisy.

Before the neo trad movement all bow quivers were made of plastic and screwed to the bows, even the bears after late 60s. Sometimes I wish we actually had such cool looking stuff back then. Back when most people used some sort of sights. Find an old bow quiver and cover the hood in leather.

Didn't Fred's original scabbard quiver (which would be about as traditional as it gets) screw to the bow? And how many old pre 60's Bear and other brand bows came with at least one screw hole in them?

That's how the first quivers were used other than the original Kwikee Kwiver. You want something original, then get a Kwikee that clamps onto the limbs. Even Fred Bear's first quiver had to screw to the bottom of the riser. I guess I'm not very trad though.
