How do they do when hunting or just shooting?Do the arrows fall out the side or stay put pretty well?

You might want to use the search option here on the forum. Lot's of info on them.

Thanks MJB never thought of that  

ya they are all right nothing that is amazeing

I sold mine.  Seemed harder to get arrows in and out than necessary.  Arrows of different lengths won't work well (i.e. judos, blunts, and b/hs won't fit together).

That is all I use in the hunting season.You get the hang of taking out,a little harder putting back in.

 Pros are no fletching exposed,to animals or weather.Carries nice on your back to allow getting through thick stuff better.All kind of sizes as far as what you want to pack along.

Negatives are figuring out how to carry it if you are also going to be carrying in a treestand.One extra thing to haul up the tree.As stated above a little tricky getting an arrow back in.

 I hunt 95% of the time from the ground so they work pretty well for me.I have a mini up to a #4
I like them.

I got one last year for the late season to keep my fletching dry. It worked great for that.

I have the 6.5 that is a good sized fanny pack style. I thought getting arrows in and out was not a big issue. The only thing was I had it adjusted to just fit my BH' if you take BH and judo's or what ever other heads you would need to cut out some foam or something to fill the space and it would work just fine. I would say that is about the only drawback of the catquivers.

I hunt mostly from the ground and thought it might be nice just having to carry 1 thing instead of a quiver and a bulky pack thats always in the way

Its good that the cat quiver lets you drop an arrow straight down with minimal movement with practice. Negatives: I think its a little too noisy with brush slap even with moleskin and is uncomfortable when bent over with the metal rods against your back.  Its hard to get the arrow back in without ruining the fletching.

I hunt from the ground and love my cat 3 1/2. I can pack everything in it and it is my quiver too! It is easy to get through the woods with and has lots of extra straps to attach any extras!

Cat III for me as well. Perfect pack that protects fletchings and arrows can be accessed while on your back. Here it is laying in the beautiful flora of the Colorado mountains.

I got a mini cat for sale... $40 shipped in the quiver section of the classifieds... Thanks !!

I like the looks of the 1 and 2

I love my Cat7 for the spot/stalk and still hunting I use here in WY. I can carry more than I will ever need and often do.

I bought one used.  I bought it from a tall, broad fellow and I'm pretty big myself.  It didn't fit either of us.  Uncomfortable to wear, aggravating to put an arrow back in wearing it, very difficult to sit down wearing it, not a good choice to hang on a tree when sitting in a stand either.  

I much more prefer the Arrowmaster by Safari Tuff.  If I need to carry stuff, I can wear it with a fanny pack, a day pack, or a full size backback--no problem.  Much more comfortable and user friendly IMO.

I have a 3 that I like ok.  It seems a little noisy to me when I'm walking.  I'm sure animals can't hear it, but I hear some rub and very faint squeeks when walking that I don't hear when using my day pack.  I have to take it off to get arrows in without messing up the fletching.  Arrows come out just fine when needed and I haven't had any come out accidentily.  My hunting partner loves his.  I can take it or leave it.

I like the mini.  Works with any backpack.  H

I have had several different models over the years. Two seasons ago I got a Safari Tuff Arrowmaster and it solved all the problems that I had with the Catquiver. One of the things I did not like about the Catquvers was using them with a pack....not easy to do for me. And I did not particularly like having the quiver and the pack as a single package since I don't always need the pack when I hunt close to home.

I have had a Cat I for over a decade now. I love it! Wouldn't trade it. I do hunt mostly from the ground. Mostly by blind. It requires some practice, mostly putting arrows back in. But, after a while it is second nature. I use Selway "piggybacks" for arrows that are different in length. Again, practice is needed. I have recently thought about picking up a GFA quiver.

I still have my old St. Charles, the forerunner of the Catquiver, as well as several of the Catquivers. They are among the very best best quivers for the stalking bowhunter, and are my personal favorite. The bottom removal of arrows, behind the back and out of sight of the animals is a great feature, as well as having the fletching covered and the arrows individually held in place.

I also have a regular center back quiver that has cutouts at the bottom on both sides to allow the bottom-draw of an arrow, as well as allowing for a convential back-quiver draw. It also has a detachanble hood that can be used to cover the fletching, which restricts it to a bottom-draw only. It doesn't hold the arrows individually in place, but can easily carry 4 dozen arrows.
