Are you saying the quiver mount is in the way ? The quiver should be mounted as close to the riser as possible . Hope this helps. Drew

Just remember to reset your nock point.
If you flip the string over, your nock point won't be in the right place.
Can you describe your bow quiver? I've never heard or had a problem stringing a bow with a bow quiver on. Are you using a stringer or the "step through" method.
If so DON'T..get a stringer

No, The bigger loop is on the top so it can slide up or down the limb when stringing and unstringing you'r bow. The smaller loop won't slide far enough to allow you to string it.

Hope this helps. John

I agree with wtpops.  It is much easier with a stringer.  I am a newbie to this too     :bigsmyl:
