That can depend on customer needs and taste if a custom quiver.  Generally you want at least three inches
of shaft below the fletch showing so you won't rub or shake the feathers too bad.  That would make the quiver
22" to 24" deep for 32" arrows, but ask the customer if you are making from scratch.
