RE: Octane Products
For those of you complaining about the price of the quiver you need to realize the differencebetween "top of the line" and "get the job done". A long time ago I freaked when I found out how much my Mathews dealer wanted for a Mathews quiver. Well, after several frustrating hunts with plastic mounting brackets and plastic quiver bodies, Icoughed up the moneyand bought the Mathews quiver. Since then I have never looked back, until this season. The difference in machined aluminum and plastic is night and day. I too take my quiver off in the stand and you find out in a hurry that numerous on and offs in a wide temp. range tends to take it's toll on lesser materials. I bought one of the Bowtech plastic ones when I bought my Guardian with the hopes it would be better, let's just say I learned to live with it through this past season, which will be it's last.
I understand that money is tight as well as anyone. I own my own business, have a wife, and two kids. Be that as it may, it is worth the extra time to save/plan for the expense for me as opposed to cursing the "benefits" of saving some money. For those who can only get away and hunt the weekends, the plastic stuff may work. If you plan on spending the better part of both deer and turkey seasons in the woods with your bow, I feel that the extra cost of quality is worth the headaches itprevents while doing what we all love to do.
