I use a detatchable quiver. Alpine Soft-Loc on my Q2, and I' m not sure yet what' s going on my RazorTec, it will either be another Alpine or a HOYT. As soon as I get settled in my Double Bull or Summit stand the quiver comes off. I can' t stand shooting with a quiver on my bow. I tried a 2 piece MATHEWS for awhile and hated it.[:' (] bow didn' t balance right and it made my bow too heavy.

My very first new bow about 13yrs ago I had a noisy kwikee quiver, so I removed it everytime I got into the tree. Sometimes it fell out of the tree, once I took a shot, and had an opportunity for a 2nd. It was a pain trying to get the arrow out of the quiver, while it hung from a broken branch. I vowed that day my next bow would have a better quietier two piece. Every bow I' ve had since the quiver stays on. I shoot 3D' s all summer with it on, and I hunt with it on. It just makes more sense to leave it on. The arrows are readily accessible if needed, they also add some camo cover to your outline at full draw. Plus if you ever still hunt with a bow you need it on, unless use a hip quiver. So why not do it all the time, and practice that way. That to me saves alot of hassel & worries!!!

I hunt with mine on. It is always on and I am used to the weight, so my bow feels bare without it. I always hunt from the ground too.
It sounds like most treestand hunters go without.
