I have had several including $100 ones and I really like the Alpine Bear Claw I just put on my 82nd.. $25 and all of the features I want in a quiver; removable, locks on, high arrow capacity, holds arrows firmly, makes no noise if I choose to shoot with it on, and super lightweight. Plus camo matched by new bow perfect

It really depends on how you hunt. If you do most of your hunting from a treestand, you might be better off with a one piece removable quiver so you can take it off once you're up in the tree. If you like to do a lot of stalking, a two peice quiver may be the ticket. Also there are a lot of guys who spot and stalk that prefer a quiver that is mounted to a backpack like a cat quiver.

I personally like the one peice removable quiver. Depending on your budget, you can get a very good quality quiver from anywhere between 40-100 dollars. Some of the better ones are Octane, Fuse and Alpine. The Octane is very nice, but also very expensive.

I personally am using an Alpine right now. They are very well built and quiet. If I get a good deal on an Octane I may bite though.

I have a piece of advice for you, something I learned, The Alpine Bear Claw is great, but, it does not like dust! mine actually fell off my bow because of the dust.

I bought the tree limb quiver, and I love it!

IMO the best quiver on the market is the Octane. If you like to detach you quiver once in a stand go for a 1 pc. if you leave your quiver on go for the 2 pc.

I have both and they have adjustability and quality like no other.

If you are on a budget check out the Alpine Soft Loc. It is a nice detachable 1 pc. quiver.

I've got the 6 arrow, 1 piecequiver from Bowtech (not the Octane)...$35. It does fine for me. I take it off while I'm in the tree. It's not as nice as the Octane I had but when it came down to it.......it's just a quiver!

I have used the Alpine Soft lock and like it.. Also really like the quick detach on the Mathews quivers.. I am using Octane right now and really like them but I took the magnets out. Very heavy with magnets but it's about average on weight with the foam insert. I have both the 1 and 2 piece and the 2 pc. fits a big more snug to the bow so I'd have to say I like it better..
