Tight Spot
« on: March 06, 2017, 08:32:03 AM »
I'm pretty close to buying a new tight spot so I thought I'd ask around to see what the opinions are from those who either have them or had them but might have switched to something else.  Since I won't be removing the quiver, I like that it's close to the bow and the 2017 model is pretty lightweight at under 10 ounces. The lifetime warranty and made in the USA is a huge plus as well. Thoughts?

best option out there. I own a 5 arrow and the new 7 arrow. The 7 arrow is less than 50 grains heavier, but when you actually load it with a couple arrows @ 450gr it can add a little tilt to the quiver side. At the same price I would buy the 7 arrow and if the extra weight bothers you only hunt 5 in it but have the option of 7 if the time ever came where you needed it.

Also, buy a black quiver so you can use it on any color bow in the future  :tup:

They are good quivers I like the 5 arrow myself but I run treelimb quivers. Black or carbon color so it matches any bow you get down the road since they are $144

Since you never take off the quiver you won't regret it. What most people knocking them don't realize are the benefits besides holding arrows (which it holds any size very snugly).  With a regular quiver that's 3" from the bow, it pulls your bow over and you have to compensate by twisting your hand in the opposite direction which creates a lot of torque. You don't realize how much until you've used a tight spot and then went back to a regular quiver, it feels horrible to me! Comfort and balance at full draw are high priorities to me, and a tight spot gives me that, worth every penny if you have the pennies to spare. :twocents:

Thanks guys!  Yeah I've already decided on black for future bow changes :tup:  I think the 5 arrow will suit me better than the 7 so that's what I have my eye on

I didn't find that the tight spot quiver fit tighter to the Hoyt I shoot than a two piece Hoyt quiver. Tight spot has more adjustability but the Hoyt two piece quiver was quieter on my bow and didn't change the torque at all for me.

I have Mathews two piece on my bow and love how close it fits.

I did put a tight spot on my daughters Mission bow and I was really impressed with the fit and adjustability.  I can see that it could work on a ton of bows.  I was able to adjust the hood up to where I wanted it and actually tilt the quiver on the bow to get it around the other accessories.

I would highly recommend one.  :tup:

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.
