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

I have my quiver mounted on the bow. I like back quivers but not for hunting. I have a Great Northern Quick Mount 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

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.

I've used just about everything out there and so far I can say that my favorite is Rod Jenkins' Safari Tuff quiver-a great product!

Any quiver is a compromise. I've been using a GN strap on with my longbows for many years. It works best for me. I plan to try a GFA type, but I doubt that I'll give up on my bow quiver.

i have always had a quiver on my longbows to help with shock. i have been using a dawgware with my recurve and love it.
i recently got a game plan gear spot n stalk pack and ordered a vortxx quiver to go with it. it is a nice pack with a ton of pockets. the quiver is nice. it is small and light, but not made to hold traditional heads. some of the larger heads are fairly long and the head of the quiver is not that deer. the end results are a silced finger. i cut the tip of my thumb off this wee--the first time i used it!!! gonna see if i can get a quiver made for me. check out the packs--any quiver can be mounted to the side of them.
