I will always love my backquiver, and for quick hunts close to the truck or camp, I will always take it over any other. That said however, I do like the stalker style over the shoulder quiver, 3 Rivers offers several. Last year I tried an EFA 4 arrow for my sheep and goat hunts. I had never liked bow quivers before, but EFA makes a fantastic, light, easy on/easy off quiver that is hard to beat.

Angel,
The Kanati Pro angle quiver would give you a little better balance then the 2 piece you currently have and the piggy back would mount to the flat metal bar that attaches the hood to the arrow grippers. I recently bought ones after using the GFA style , and I also have the Arrow master, they all have there place but the bow quiver seems to quiet my bow and it one less thing to carry on my back.

Here a pic of the new pro angle set up, easy on and off and still fairly light weight.

Does anyone use a Possibles Bag/Quiver combo in these situations? That's what I would like to do. I have never shot a longbow or recurve with a quiver attached to it. Not saying I wouldn't like it, I just don't know. I do prefer my bows without anything on them, just a personal preference of mine and nothing at all to do with any field experience. In fact I have only bowhunted a few times with a TRAD bow and that was back in Ohio for deer. Now I am in Texas and have switched all my desires to HOG hunting. So I am trying to figure out this very same question too.
I'd like to hear about Possibles Bags/quivers too, if there is anyone that goes that way.
Thanks.
Didn't mean to hijack the thread from the OP. Sorry if it looks that way.

I have tried and tried to get rid of my bow quivers. I cannot find anything as conveinient though and alsways come back. Especially for stalking, i like the quiver to angle back towards me so my bow is the farthest thing in front of me not any noisy feathers.
Great Northern just came out with the "Kickback" Adjustable model that does just that. I am going to stop looking for the better mousetrap now.

I don't think the answer is to get another bow quiver, I'll just learn to love the Kanati that I have. I have an Idea for a modification, If I get to it this weekend I'll post up some pics.
I really wish that Safari Tuff came in blue plaid, or leather, I'm not much of a camo fan.....

I like to shoot a bare bow. I use a Simmons Tube quiver. Unlike alot of other side quivers it hangs straight down behind shoulder. If ya need to move, it holds tight to body. If you want to be extra careful hold with arm. Low visiblity getting an arrow out. Crawling, stays close to body. Raining, it protects fletchings. Arrows do not rattle. When drawing back on a critter no additional stuff to catch an eye(like a bunch of fletchings).
They are not made anymore but I see one every now and then. New price was $75. Can get for $50-60 now.
Only draw back at times is if a bush bumps against quiver it can make a noise(hollow tube). My arm usually protects that from happening(always ready to get an arrow out). I find that if I am "still hunting" too fast my quiver will tell me. I see more deer now before they see me.
Tried lots of quivers, I do prefer a side quiver /"plains quiver" or "Lakota" for 3D shoots.

I ended up with 4 different bow quivers in my hunt for the perfect one.
I'm hoping to avoid getting so many side and back quivers!
I'm selling off stuff to fund an Arrowmaster!

I like the GFA. When moving through the brush, I tighten up the strap and have it under my right arm. I never find it in the way. I get the convenience of a bow quiver, but just don't like the feel of one on my bow, and dislike the "flagging" that a quiver of bright fletching creates.

I have every quiver made and used every one of them. I still go back to the GN strap on or side mount, I don't like a bow quiver but nothing beats it on a stalk. If you have a pack on you don't need anything else hanging on your back.
