The Eagles Flight quiver works best on my bow. Very light weight and secure with no movement.

The Wing attachment that sets the arrows back in line with the limb and the Totem shaft between the hood and the grippers on this quiver are great features for a short forward handled bow.

I like the GFA quiver. It can be used as a back or side quiver.

I like a relatively cheap hip quiver worn baldric style. There it is on my right side under my tragically high elbow...

I'm really liking my Big Jim's bow quiver...easy on/easy off, quiet, sturdy and looks good too.

Joe,
What is that curve leaning against the tree with the catquiver?  Is is a Bighorn?  Very nice looking lines!

Bow quiver for me. All in one nice package mounted to bow. Arrows quickly accessed. Nothing hanging from your body catching on everything in the woods. Very quiet. The ultimate hunters tool.

:) . Same here, I like a bow quiver the best, but I don't like waiving around a bow plus a quiver full of arrows when taking aim at a deer. I've been struggling with different quivers since I got into this hobby !

I have a hard time picking one.  I like my GN strap on but I usually like to carry more than 5 arrows.  I use my catquiver 3.5 allot but that can get in the way when turkey hunting.  I have a detachable hip quiver that is nice but flashes alot of color when I'm still hunting, and how can I leave out the nostalgic feeling of drawing the arrow from over my shoulder with a full two dozen projectiles ready to play.  So ya have fun with them all :-)

Currently and 'til further notice, my Howard Hill back quiver. This is the 22" softer model and one heck of a quiver!

I use a back quiver. Most of my hunting is done in ladder stands. I can hang the quiver on the side of the stand and a follow up arrow is right by my side.  When in my ground blind, I take my extra arrow out and lay it over my quiver as it lies right next to me on the ground. I am clumsy walking in the leaves, so I seldom walk through the woods as I hunt, so noise is not too big of an issue. Anyhow, if your back quiver rattles too much, you are walking too fast. I just don't care for bow quivers on my Hills. Oddly, though, when I shot the recurve, I always used a bow quiver. Go figure.

For ease and versatility, I don't know if you can beat a bow quiver. But some people just cant get used to shooting with one. Just make sure you practice a lot with one on your bow if you plan to use it hunting. I think most trad hunters probably have a couple of different styles. I have a homemade bow quiver but will occasionaly use a homemade tube style side or back quiver.

I have a Selway slide-on for my recurves, but no matter where I place the two pieces, I drop one spine weight.  I have a Great Northern detachable quiver for a 3-piece takedown longbow that is nice, but it waves in the wind if it is blowing. I have an older Catquiver that I haven't used for several years and am thinking about donating to St. Judes auction.

I have used a GFA for the last two seasons and love it.  I plan on making a plains-style side quiver this summer for field points, and a back quiver for judos and blunts.  For hunting though, GFA is favorite to date.

I like bow quivers.  I am using a Great Northern right now.  I really like it.  Light and quiet.
