I like the Arrowmaster because it has a large pocket to carry stuff.

From what I found was capacity was about the same. Difference is the side pocket and storm cover included with the arrowmaster.

I love my Arrowmaster.  

The pockets allows me to carry plenty of spare "stuff"

Pocket makes a huge difference to me.

I have both...go with the arrowmaster. that pocket is the bomb and the storm cover is great for weather and if you have long arrows.

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

I love my Arrowmaster.  Easy to use, functional, can't wait to use it in the woods.  Like was said, the main differences are the fletch hood (which you can buy separate) and side pocket (which I use a lot).  Duiker may not have the belt attachment, which is good for keeping the quiver from moving.

I have both too. The Arrowmaster is the one I would buy if I were only getting one of them. The pocket is a nice feature and the quiver is somewhat larger and will hold more arrows. For many hunting situations you just don't need the extra arrow capacity or the pocket, and then the Duiker is perfect. I did buy the fletch hood for the Duiker because it is so nice for keeping out rain, hiding bright feathers and keeping the arrows even more secure and rattle free. The Duiker is also nicer for field archery like 3D and stump shooting where less is more. They are both great quivers. What the heck -- just get both of them!

I have no experience with the full size Arrowmaster.  However, I do have a Duiker model w/Rain Hood, and am totally pleased with it. It's the only quiver I use when not choosing to go with a bow quiver.  

During inclimate weather it is the ONLY quiver I'll use.. I don't have much use for a pocket, as I carry a badlands day pack for essientials and water while hunting.  This quiver works great with a day pack BTW.  :thumbsup:

have both, but prefer the lighter duiker.  just personal preference.  the difference 'tween the two is mainly the pouch, but i hunt with a fanny pouch and prefer to keep that added weight around my waist rather that on the quiver.  both quivers are KILLER.  period.  ymmv!  ;)
