I like two piece quivers but that's just a personal opinion. Some folks like to take off the quiver when they get into their stands, I don't so I don't see a need for a removable quiver. I like the compactness and stability of a two piece quiver. Two piece quivers also tend to be quieter with less vibration however the new technology out today with one piece quivers have come a long way to address those downfalls usually attributed with the one piece design.

I prefer 2 piece quivers or no quiver at all. I am a knuckle dragger and my arrows are so long that most 1 piece quivers don't support the bottom half of my arrows so the vibrate around a good bit at the shot.

That's another reason why I like 2 piece quivers.....32in draw here.

Honestly I don't think it makes one bit of difference. It is total personal preference.

I typically like 2 piece quivers. I just recently purchased an Octane 2 piece quiver. Nice quiver, but it is a little on the heavy side. I'm still not 100% certain it is going to stay yet (but I couldn't pass it up for the discounted price I picked it up at ). I hear the one piece is a little lighter if that has any bearing on the decision. I do spot and stalk hunting out west and don't hunt from a tree. So I prefer to have a lighter setup.

I purchased a 2 piece Octane quiver off ebay at a good price. Decided to try the two piece since ive already had 1 pieces before.

OK, now this is a hard one...on my 101st Airborne which is the bow I shoot 3D and will hunt elk with, I have the 1 piece Octance Quiver. I like the option to detach it for 3D and the quick detach feature when out west.

For my General (whitetail bow) I use the 2 piece..

Don't ask me why, but I do

But if it had to be one, I would use the 1 piece Octane
