The quiver is a convenient storage place for arrows so they are easily available when whooting. The quiver is slung on a belt that is usually worn on the waist. In field archery the quiver might be worn slung across the shoulders to prevent it from catching on undergrowth.

 

Another type of quiver is the ground quiver which is a metal frame that stands on three legs on the ground. This is designed to support a bow and to hold arrows not in use on the shooting range.
