I'v seen a bunch of posts about Octane's stuff and I bought the 1 piece quiver.
I have some issues;
first of all my bow was tuned perfectly and with the quiver on I shoot 2" to the right.
second, I see the remaining arrows vibrate like,....well, like vibrators.
Should I adjust my sight or leave the quiver off when I'm shooting ? I bought the damn thing to keep my arrows on the bow....

when you mounted your sights, did the mount for the sights move with some type of spacer? if not you shouldnt have an issue with your sight having to be adjsuted maybe its your anchor point ? but if you feel comfortable with you form thenadjust your sights

I'd say the quiver is causing you to Torque your bow.

I have to add my input. I have the octane 1 piece quiver it is heavy and if your not using proper form when shooting. you will torque to which side the quiver is on. Ive been shooting bow for 12 years and noticed when people dont use proper form they torque to whichever side the "heavy" quiver is on.

I've been shooting my 82nd about 6 months without a quiver since I didn't have one on and I practice at a shooting range where they have arrowholders.
My form is near perfect and I have the results to prove it. I you don't have good form, you'll have problems shooting an airborne, I think. The strange thing is that my arrows go to the opposite side of the quiver, could it be I'm pushing the bow to that side by overcorrecting for the weight ?

damn, GMMAT, coming from you, I must be doing something wrong.
I tried shooting with the quiver on last night and it seems that I keep adjusting my bow with my fingers that are tucked in, holding the bow. Trying to hold it level.
I replaced the magnets with the foam insert andthe hits tend to goless to the right.
I might need to get used to the extra weight of the quiver, time will tell.
