I broke my quiver off my bow last year while packing my Blacktail out of a hell hole! I had a quick release quiver and I liked that part of it but it was so bulky and made the bow very awkward to set down or have hanging in a tree stand. What quivers do you guys use and like? Post pictures too if you have them so I can see how they sit on your bows! Let me know which ones are your favorites! thank you!

I myself can't stand a quiver on my bow. It adds a lot of weight and makes the balance on my bows go to crap. I always shoot a hip quiver or back quiver. The bow mounted quivers that I do like "on my friends and family's bows" are g5 and octane.

I got an Alpine Soft-loc quiver on my bow. Like this one: http://www.cabelas.com/quivers-alpine-soft-loc-arrow-quiver-1.shtml (http://www.cabelas.com/quivers-alpine-soft-loc-arrow-quiver-1.shtml)
Not sure why they're selling it for $60- I only paid $30 at a local bow shop. Nice thing is they're made in the USA. :yike:

i prefer a fuse 6 arrow quiver myself.

I lost my quiver last year also. Wish it was when I was pulling out a deer to! I am going to get the Bohning Lynx 6-Arrow Quiver as a replacement. Gets pretty good ratings but well see how it really works soon. http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/search.cmd?form_state=searchForm&N=0&fsch=true&Ntk=AllProducts&Ntt=Bohning+Lynx+6-Arrow+Quiver&x=0&y=0&WTz_l=Header%3BSearch-All+Products (http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/search.cmd?form_state=searchForm&N=0&fsch=true&Ntk=AllProducts&Ntt=Bohning+Lynx+6-Arrow+Quiver&x=0&y=0&WTz_l=Header%3BSearch-All+Products)

I use a tight spot. Sits nice and close to your bow and you can release it from your bow with ease if you want to take it off before the shot. Also is very easy to adjust to help balance your bow more effectively.

It must have been too late last night, and I too tired, when I posted last night. The quiver I have is actually the Alpine Bear Claw, not the Soft-loc. And that's why the price was different. Cabelas has it for $30, the same as what I paid. I'm sure the Soft-loc is a better quiver, according to the price and the ratings. But it all depends on what you want to spend. I think for $30 the Bear Claw is a good quiver.

Tight Spot is the best quiver money can buy. IMO.
-
I use a Sagittarius Pegasus, it is s limb bolt quiver, but i dont know if it is still made, simmilar options are availible.
-
I have a g5 magloc....mostly because I like the way it looks
-
i always had a bow mount quiver but this year i switched up and bought a back pack style quiver.

Arrowweb FP 2 piece...designed for my Mathews, sits close to bow so balance is pretty good. Holds 7 arrows...in case I have to use a few for grouse while I'm elk hunting.
-
I hate em I have one on my bow but I take it off as soon as I get to my spot
-
I've been using the Alpine Soft-loc quiver for years, since it first came out. It's quiet, fairly light, and you can pop it on and off easily for those times when you're sitting in a ground blind or anytime you don't need it on. The price is pretty reasonable too, only $60. When they first came out they were only $50 so a $10 increase isn't that bad.
I just have a problem spending $100+ for a piece of equipment THAT JUST HOLDS ARROWS! There's a few quivers out there with some very pretty packaging for a lot of money that perform the exact same function. Yet another example of the archery industry getting overpriced.
(now stepping off my soapbox....)

It isn't cheap, but the tightspot is hands down the best quiver ever built. :tup:
-
Hoyt 4 arrow two piece or Bear 5 arrow two piece. Super quiet and mount close to the bow. If I was to go one piece it would be Tight-Spot for sure. Sorry this is the only pic I have that shows the quiver.
-
I use a TightSpot as well. Like everyone said, its not cheap but I am happy about every cent I paid for it. Excellent, excellent product.
-
I love the Octane 4 arrow lightweight. I notice no difference with it on at all.
-
Alpine Soft-loc has served me well for years, 5 arrow model loaded with 3 arrows, take it off when in a tree. :twocents:
