I prefer to have the side stalker type. Offers more control over arrows, and quiver while moving through brush and such.
I did just get an EFA for my Griffin, and Im loving it so far...

I have a plains style I'll probably use this year but that Saffari Tuff looks good.

I switched over entirely to using a Safari Tuff quiver (see ad at the top of The Shooters Forum).  I do all my practicing and tournament shooting without a bow quiver, and the bow just felt unbalanced when I put one back on it in preparation for the hunting season.

[Edit] or just click Chris's link in the post above mine, which I didn't notice when I was making my post!

Spent a small fortune on quivers over the years, made several myself, modified others...Rod put all the good and none of the bad in one quiver.  It's the best I've ever used.  I've used mine in creek bottoms, mountains, "high" desert;  from treestands, ground blinds, and natural blinds;  hunting pigs, rabbits, whitetails, grouse, elk, etc..  I'm no expert by any stretch, but it doesn't take an expert to know this one works.

Here's one I made before fall turkey season began.  It's got a sheath for my favorite knife built into it.

I'm new to these forums.  I am interested in the Safari Tuff Arrowmaster or Duiker, although I can't afford one right now.  I have read the detail on both, but wondered what anyone thought that has tried both.  I like the thought of the smaller Duiker, but wondered if the larger size and pocket of the arrowmaster is well worth it.  Any thoughts?

I haven't tried the Duiker, but here's my thoughts.  I use my Arrowmaster for both hunting and tournaments.  It's not heavy or bulky enough to bother me.  The pocket comes in VERY handy for items like a hunting license, keys, score card, tag, wind detector, etc. etc. etc.  

'Course having both on hand is ideal, but if I had to choose one or the other it would definately be the Arrowmaster.

A cool photo captured at the right time to show the arrow in mid-air on the off-side of a nice WA billy goat, again using a Mike G back quiver:

I was wondering how many arrows does the arrowmaster hold?
