Quivers

[ISP 5353]

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

Mine is always on. I shoot better with it on.

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.

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 have used bow quivers forever,however I am looking for another Catquiver 1 currently. Don't like quivers on my longbows.

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.

[Anointed Archer]

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.
