I shoot with my Great Northern on my bow all year long.  It just feels natural.

All great answers above.  I have been through every style there is, and because I primarily tree stand hunt ( unfortunately) I spend a lot of time with the bow sitting across my lap.  I found that to be a real PIA and likely to flag anything watching, and increase the probability of brushing against a fletching and making unpardonable noise.   I have stayed with Catquivers for years and I just hang them up on a hook next to me and grab an arrow as I need it or hold one in my hand

I shoot a tall tines recurve with a selway limb bolt quiver.  The quiver stays on my bow and full of arrows at all times.  I love the extra mass it gives my recurve and it actually made my bow a little quieter.  When I shot longbows I used a safari tuff, but I'm loving this recurve and don't see me changing for a loooong time!

I like the extra weight it gives the bow, and your arrows are always right where the need to be without taking your eyes off your target.  

I do use a cover for my arrows on the bow to protect the arrow fletching and camouflage those fletchings.  I built this one out of a soft piece of leather, but prefer them made from saddle cloth or fleece.

 

This cover i got from 3 Rivers and is really quiet.The quiver is a strap on Selway i've had on this bow since 2008. GREAT quiver btw.   :thumbsup:

They can be even more useful than carrying arrows.  You can use the arrows and riser to shield your face, from approaching game and can be used to attach a small branch for added cammo
I use them in Some situations and not on others.

Good plan is get one to see if it works for you

I tend to use my catquiver with a solo quiver from 3rivers.  I don't like bulky quivers on my bow for shooting, only transport, and take my quiver off my other bows when shooting.  I don't like the excess weight.  This solo quiver is as much as I go.

I use both, small game hunting and stump shooting I use the bow quiver. When deer/stand hunting I take it off when I get to the stand. I don't like the arrows laying on my lap plus it just seems bulky to me

Depends on the bow I'm using. My Talltines recurve has a Thunderhorn Lynx strapped to it 100% of the time. The longbow I'm building, and my (someday) Toelke Whip, I will use my Farr West Leathers Absorkee quiver.
