Default Quieten down a quiver...

Just got a new set-up and was wondering if there's any way to quietenmy quiver. I've got a kwikee quiver and I get a "hollow thud" from the quiver when I shoot. I can take the quiver off and my bow is quite.
Thanks in advance for any input.

I use one of those Simms grip wraps and wrap it around the hood of my quiver, just like Uncle Ted.

Having a full quiver of arrows quiets it down more than anything. Otherwise use dampeners on it, as mentioned.

yeah, they look like miniature versions of the stick on limb dampeners. another idea is when the kwickee breaks after a few dozen uses, replace it with a soft loc or other less mechanical quiver.

Had a similar issue with mine. I simply removed the red tipped "metal lever" on the side & simply use the plastic tipped set screw to hold the quiver in place.
