Default RE: Treelimb Premium Quiver

I have a Sword Apex Micro 3rd plane sight on the bow and the knobb is a little too big to allow the quiver to sit vertically. I am glad that the quiver is able to be set in 3 different positions or it wouldn't have worked at all for me.

As far as the hanger design goes... I personally don't like to carry a screw in hanger around with me when using my climber all of the time, I would rather use a limb to hold the quiver and it would take a rather small limb to fit into the slot. Granted, the quiver doesn't way much, but load it with arrows and hang it on a windy day and I could see there possibly being a problem. I am sure that it will work fine most of the time, but I wouldn't want my quiver to slip and fall when I have a big buck at 20 yards.

The foam insert.... yeah, I could slot the foam and it would be an easy fix, but it would be much easier if Treelimb would have thought about it before hand. Also, the holes aren't as deep as the pictures would indicate, and my Snypers blades are exposed when inserted. Yet again, it could be fixed, but it would have been nice for it to have been thought of when being designed.

The arrow grips don't just make noise when loading, they make it when removing an arrow. The tabs do make it quieter, but there is still a little pop sound. Also, if I had to take a follow up shot on a deer, I don't want to have to grab the quiver with both hands, use one to fold back a tab, and use the other to remove the arrow. That is way too much fumbling around, and that would be the cause for the deer to take off.

I can say that I like the quiver bracket and the two folding arms to remove the quiver, they are very nice compared to quivers like the Kwikee quivers and Alpine BearClaw.

I personally feel that overall it is a decent quiver, but it has its draw backs. Call me picky, but I want my gear to perform exactly how I want it to, and the Treelimb doesn't. I have nothing against the quiver, and it will actually be going onto my girlfriends bow, I just think that there are several better quivers in the same price range, and several that are far superior for more money.
