A break-away, snap-on quiver and mounting assembly for use with an archery bow having a central handle section. The quiver includes upper and lower end members joined together by a connecting rod; the upper end member having an inverted cup to receive and shield the pointed ends of the arrows, and the lower end member having spring clips to grip the shafts of the arrows near their feathered ends. Each of the end members has an attachment bracket that cooperates with a mounting bracket on the bow when the brackets are slidably engaged with one another. Spring-loaded detents on the attachment brackets engage sockets on the corresponding mounting bracket to provide a yieldable connection that allows the quiver to break away from the bow if subjected to a separating force of sufficient strength to overcome the detents. The quiver is snapped onto the bow by merely lining up the attachment brackets with their respective mounting brackets and then pressing them together, so as to force the brackets into interlocking engagement against the spring resistance of the detents.
