They are the best thing going for certain siuations. I used one exlusively for about 2 years and now have settled with a bowquiver.

The 3 or 3.5 allows room for all the gear you would need for an extended hunt and plenty of room for a day hunt. Arrows will stay dry and easily accessable when stalking or even hunting from treestand. Getting arrow back into quiver normally requires taking off your back.

I have a 3 and 3.5 for sale if interested, they are both posted on the classifieds. PM if interested or if you have more questions.

I also have a Simmons Tube quiver which would be perfect for traveling on 4-wheeler.

Let me know if your interested.

All sorts of quivers have their nitch. I used many of the cat quivers including the  cat quiver 3 the only thing i'll say against them is if you want to sit down the quiver has to be at least partially removed.
I keep going back to a small bow quiver and a hang on for extra blunts etc.

I modified my cat quiver to having only one strap so I could wear it at an angle. This way I just loosen the strap and can move it around my side so I can sit. How ever, most of the time I am in a ground blind, so I just take it off and keep it next to me. It serves the purpose, keeps fletch protected, easy arrow access.

I had a mini and traded it and still have a cat III, fleece model. I guess I don't like either as the III still hands on it's hook in new condition. Might be a good deal out west where you're chasin' elk over the hills, but here in the eastern hardwoods, nothin' works as well as a plain ole bowquiver.

It's difficult to replace arrows. All of the arrows have to be the same length, or if your blunt is shorter, you need to modify a bit, or use a piggybacker. Gotta take it off to sit down. Sure, they'll keep your fletchings dry, but so will a plastic bag with less hassle.

I'm sure there are archers who love their catquivers, but I'm not among them. Mine hangs on it's hook and I use it for storing my small fry, GN, eagle's flight, etc. :)

I've been using a CAT II for 8yrs and wouldn't leave home without it. I just grab my bow and quiver and I'm out the door knowing that I have everything I need.
I've hunted almost every day of my life.....the rest were just wasted
