I hunt with the quiver on the bow. I like the additional mass weight and the convience for access to the arrows.

My favorite is the cat quiver but if I'm carry in a tree stand I go to the bow quiver.

The only quiver I haven't tried is a back quiver. Plains, Vista and a bolt on selway for my recurve. I perfer the selway over the others. I usually have a back back on when I hunt so a back quiver would be out of the question for me.

I have tried just about all of them, back quiver, catquiver, sidequiver, bowquiver. I keep coming back to the bowquiver because it is the best for me big game hunting. It simply does the best job. I use a backquiver for rabbit or squirrel.

I think you can gather all of our opinions and it's not gonna tell you what will or won't work for you. I'm afraid you'll have to do what a lot of have had to do... try a bunch of stuff til the "right thing" for you comes along then you'll know what works. My 2 cents worth and this too is just an opinion..lol God bless,Mudd

I have tried a lot of quivers, but the handiest way to carry arrows is with a bow quiver. I don't always like them, especially if the bow is heavy enough without it, but it's still the easiest way. I won't say it's the best way, but I haven't found a better way yet. I usually have to carry my treestand in and out as I hunt public land mostly and back, side or other quivers aren't convenient.

Ive used them all. Hands down best IMO is a cat quiver, the smaller one so I don't take the hole camp with me. plus I put a single arrow first shot holder on my bow.>>>--------->

You may find, like I did, that a bow quiver will work for you on some bows, and on others it may cause torque issues. I finally have a bow that I can shoot as well with the quiver on as I can with it off. For my Hill bows it's a no brainer - back quiver! I actually love using a back quiver more now that I have one that works like it should! You will have to try them yourself, as others said, to see which you like best.
