Rattles confidence at the least. Agree w/Fred above.

Make sure your bow quiver straps are into the fade outs.

Your problem is one I've never had...my bows shoot exactly the same with or without a bow quiver attached....as long as there is no interference with the limbs.

Ditto for me what Terry said.

Never have that problem either, something seems wrong on the set up.

I agree with Terry....shouldn't make any difference.  Your problem is that you're not used to the different feel and balance of the bow and because of that it is affecting your form.  Go to the bale and work it out.

I am going to go against the grain a little here. As far as arrow flight and what not I have no issues with or without. I have my quiver on the riser to help with that.  However, I dont shoot some of my bows worth a darn without a quiver. It is a weight thing to me. If I am going to hunt with one I am going to shoot one all the time.

I never had a bow quiver change the arrow flight for me unless it is some type that goes on the fade outs of the bow like Terry mentioned and changes the poundage of one limb.I don't think mounting a bow quiver could affect your arrow flight ? bd

One limb bolt might be torqued differently, changing the poundage of a limb. Just a thought. might want to remount and try again. Took me a while to get used to the sight picture with a quiver. I was trying to "look around the quiver", then i got used to it.

Shooting with a bow quiver for the first time this year. Have used a side quiver in the past but grew tired of fighting it in the brush and having to grab two pieces of equipment. I'm finding that a full quiver of arrows does indeed change the balance of the bow, but that's easily dealt with, but does not change the impact of my arrows at all.

IT'S A PCH with side mounted thunderhorn quiver.
