Do you shoot with your bow quiver attached?

[Mike Most]

I use a side quiver, so the bow is free....  

[Randy Koleno]

My bow shoots the same whether my quiver is on or off I've practiced enough both ways to make sure. I am more likely to take it off while sitting on stand to avoid flagging (all white fletching) and noise from the fletching rubbing on something. It's hard for me to be a statue.

 Also, I will use an Arrowmaster on some of my hunts, my bow won't feel strange to me on those days if I normally have the bow quiver off.

[Roy from Pa]

I never liked a bow quiver, then I seen the eagles flight 3 arrow quiver and tried it. I love the way the bow shoots with it on, seems to make it more steady and balanced.
 

[TNtrapper]

Nope....just dont like a quiver on my bow when I shoot. Might just be a habit.....but thats just me.

[Terry Green]

Yes....i hunt and shoot animals with bow quiver on.

Make sure you have it attached properly in the fade outs.

Lots of advantages to leaving it on.

I have been back and forth on this issue. I have settled on a EFA 4 arrow Apache that i leave on my bow all the time. Only problem so far is that I ran out of arrows on a Big Bull in New mexico. Shot under him 3 times in a wallow. Come to find out my string had streched a little and nock had moved up.More arrows may not have helped.

I shoot most of the year without the quiver, I use a side quiver for 3D shoots. I strap on the Great Northern bow quiver about two weeks before the season to get used to the different feel.

[RockChucker30]

I never shoot without my quiver. Shoot like you'll hunt.

[Pointer]

Its an entirely personal thing...I practice with my bow set up both ways..the feel is different with the quiver on but I can shoot well either way. I like to have it on when I'm shooting a longbow...it just feels better

[Mint]

For hunting i always havea bow quiver on. I went on a caribou hunt with a back quiver and it was such a pain i switched to the bow quiver and never looked back.

[RkyMtn Joe]

I hunt and shoot with a bow quiver.  I like mine a lot and I am shooting an older MAII Black Widow with a bow quiver bolted into inserts.

I carry 4 arrows in mine---3 broadheads and one blunt.  I like a bow with a little weight to it, just feels more stable in my hands.  But to each his own---

I don't like one on my bow. Yes it is more convenient to grab a second arrow, but then you are creating more movement for the critters to see with your fletching hanging out there waving arround.

[Terry Green]

Boomer.....that's what fletch covers are for. And the bow quiver with fletch cover along with the bow act as a blind breaking up your outline.

Again....most folks don't know about maximizing all the positives of a bow quiver. I've even rattled in a buck with one.

[riverrat 2]

Yes for the quiver on,and yes for the fletching covers. Pretty close on this one. Almost 50/50. rat'

[Widow's Son]

Depends on the bow. My BW has a kwikee quiver that comes off and attaches to my climbing stand. My vintage Bears that I mostly hunt with are shot with the vintage spring arm quivers installed.

I shoot better with one on.  I guess I like more mass weight.  Some times I'll remove it & use a catquiver to hunt from the ground.

[Tajue17]

I prefer it ever since I scrapped the fletching on my pants from arrows that where in a selway and the two deer spooked..

if I have to shoot with it on its a great northern because it keeps the fletch all tight together and out of the way,, selways and thundehorns spread the fletching apart which scares me..

so i walk in and walk out with the bow quiver on when using one of my bows that uses one, once at the stand it come off.

[RM81]

I shoot with mine on.  I practice that way too.

[stykbow67]

Always on! It helps to add a little mass weight to my bow. Seems to help quiet down.

Im a spot and stalk or still hunt guy and have never hunted from a stand so I always shoot with a quiver on.
