Anyone else failed in their quest for the perfect "one-size-fits-all" bow quiver? Not literally(most are adjustable/adaptable), but figuratively. I wouldn't use one when I shot long bows, but when I switched to recurves I admit that I came to like the additional mass. I own two bows by the same maker, identical in length, poundage and limb construction. The only difference is riser design, one being more reflexed than the other. I have been through many bow quivers of all styles, 1-piece, 2-piece, with/without hood/gripper connectors, strap-on, bolt on, riser moint, fade mount, etc. My criteria is the bow must be as quiet/quieter than with no quiver at all and absolutely no added vibration or hand shock after the shock (like a tuning fork buzz). I have found that many will work great with one of my bows, but when I put it on the other I hear/feel something I don't like. I know, I'm overly anal and just need to invest in 2 quivers, but I'm beginning to believe it's related to string silencing theory, i.e. that every bow has its own unique "harmonics". I won't say what my current favorite is because if the theory holds any merit it obviously may not be the best choice for a different bow. I will say that it straps on at the fades, but I had to remove the shaft connector and now each end tends to want to migrate down the limbs after many shots. Painter's tape and double-stick tape under the pads don't help. My search continues!
