ABSTRACT:
A quiver is attachable to a conventional bow to position a series of arrows in rapidly following succession for discharge by the bowman. Disclosed is an attachment which can be bodily adjusted to operative and inoperative positions upon the bow, and when operatively positioned, will position an arrow directly upon the bowstring, as a response to discharge of another, preceding arrow. Discharge of an arrow causes the bowstring to shift an operating plunger in a direction to momentarily disengage a latch device from a spring loaded, rotatable magazine. The magazine, thus freed for rotation, turns through a predetermined angular distance to laterally displace the next arrow to be discharged. The nock of the laterally shifted arrow is caused to be positioned upon the bowstring. At the same time, the latching device returns to a position latching the magazine against further rotation, leaving it in proper position for displacement of yet another arrow to a ready-for-discharge position.
