Personally I would and do hunt with a bow quiver. Your arrow's are right there where you need them, on your bow! Hip quivers can be more noisy and in the way. Shooting 3-D, you can't beat a hip quiver.

I prefer a pack mounted quiver. They are had to come by so I went and made my own from an old bow mounted quiver, and attached it to a pack I had that had a hydration system in it. It is perfect for a light daypack and I can even reach my arrows while I have it on. and when on stand I hang it in position so that it can be reached. It worked out real well this year.

I have both. If I'm stalking I'm using a hip quiver. If I'm treestand hunting I use a bow quiver but take it off immediately on getting to my stand and place it in the bracket attached to my climber. If I'm using a hang on I have a screw in bracket that I attach to the right side of my tree as my back is against it.

Why were you told to shoot with it off? Makes no sence to me!

I gave my hip quiver to my four year old grand son. Too much noise in the woods, and I got a chair for 3D.. I use a bow quiver for hunting and take if off when I get set up. Unless I spot and stalk.

I had a bow mounted quiver and i didn't like it i find that after the release my bow would always want to turn to the left. going to try a hip quiver next season see how it works out![8D] I would recommend you taking it off after getting in your stand.
