Here's my quiver of choice for the last six years or so, at least... I could put a lot more expensive quiver on, but this does everything I need it to, as I don't leave my quiver on while I'm in my treestand. The fact that you can buy all thequiver "caddies" you need at something like $7-8 to screw in to the tree is its biggest selling point to me.

Before I even pull my bow up the first time I hang a stand, I screw one of the caddies in to the tree trunk just behind and off to the side of my right hip. Then, if I ever need a follow-up shot or -- in the case that's happened three times so far -- if I get to shoot more than one turkey out of a flock passing by, I can just reach back real quietly and slip another arrow out of the quiver which I mount upside-down on the caddy. That places the arrow perfectly ready to nock...







I've even snapped a few pics ofa few of thecaddies I had handy for ya:



This is what the quiver looks like attached to the tree. Again, the purpose of affixing it upside-down is twofold: Primarily, it's so that when I reach down and back, I pull the arrow out exactly as I need it postioned to nock and be ready to shoot again. This probably takes me about two seconds to do smoothly and quietly. Less importantly, it places the quiver cover facing down so that any deer looking up sees the camo first. I'm not too worried about that, as I believe the arrows (even capped as they are here) are going to appear as nothing more than sticks in their vision...



You can see the little metal spring on the side of that mounting bracket is covered with rust; once I hang a stand and screw the caddy into the tree up there, I leave it until I remove the stand. That's why I've got so many of these laying around. It makes it extremely quiet to get up into a tree, remove my quiver and position it right beside me.

If you really need me to, I can dig my BowTech quiver out (you've seen my room; it would only take about two seconds ), and install it on one of my bows for you. Another reason I like the Kwikee is that I can put a mounting bracket on both my Tribute and Allegiance and just grab the quiver and whichever bow I want to use that day and be off.

If it matters any, when I used to shoot a Mathews, I forked over the $100 or so and bought the matching two-piece quiver; I used it for about a month and bought a matching Kwikee back then as well. I've been using them ever since.

BowTech makes a great quiver, and if they made those matching little screw-in caddies like Kwikee did, I'd be using their quiver. That's the most important thing to me.
