Best quiver these days?

I have a tight spot airlock on my lift and love it. For a sight mounted quiver I don’t see how it could be better except that it’s a four arrow which doesn’t bother me but it might be a deal breaker for some folks. Originally had a standard mount rest and sight so I had to go tight spot otherwise I would have gone with the Mathews one piece. I ended up buying an integrate rest and bridgelock dovetail later so it would work with a lowpro now but I just have my airlock mounted straight to the riser and it works great.
 
I have a tight spot and really like it. If I knew I was always going to keep the quiver on the bow I’d probably go with a two piece quiver made for my specific bow (currently RX-8 Ultra), but I do a lot of whitetail and turkey hunting where I don’t want the quiver on. If I was only doing stand/blind hunting I’d buy something cheap and simple since you’re always removing it anyways. Since I do a combo of all styles the tightspot works best all around for my applications.
 
I like the Mathews Lo Pro on my current bow, but I also liked the Treelimb quiver I had on my 2014 Obsession bow. A quiver is a simple piece of gear. The Treelimb in black on my son's black Bowtech makes for a sharp looking setup. There are a lot of good quivers out there.
 
I use all forms of Tightspot and really think they hit a sweet spot with the Airlock. I never remove my quiver and would like to see a two-piece with the Airlock style carbon.

I'd probably go with a brand specific two piece if I was shooting a new model Mathews or Hoyt. But I'm shooting Bowtech and PSE currently.
 
I have the TS 2 piece one and it worked fine on the Elite Kairos. I was going to buy the new elite bolt on one and use the TS 2 piece one on Darton Sequel 33 but the mount holes are closer together than the Elite ones and it fits a little strange. The bottom gripper is right next to the bow grip, would like it to be lower. Only solution I can think is to cut the carbon rods shorter. Or just get a single mount TS. I prefer a riser mounted quiver, I don't remove until season is over.
 
running a mathews low pro detachable. its okay. will probably go tight spot next time. they were out of stock when I bought the mathews.
 
If you haven't tried a quivalizer, give it a shot.

I brushed them off for a while, and struggled to find a quiver I liked leaving on my bow while shooting. I tried tight spot and several others. Always had to have a back bar to balance right, and that got in the way hunting.

Love the quivalizer. Dropped about a full pound off the setup when comparing to front and back bar, and a loaded quiver. Bow balances great and it doesn't get in the way.

This is the way.
 
Everyone using the quivalizer.. does that thing not blow your bow all over the place in windy conditions?
 
another for the quivalizer, it just makes so much sense and it works great for me.

I'm new to archery and I started with a tight spot and a 10" stabilizer(cheap one), which was fine, but when I put the quivalizer on out front the hold steadied a huge amount. It's justification for a long, heavy stabilizer (look at any pro target setup) since it's also my quiver, which I need to regardless. Total setup weight is less for awesome stability. Genius creation. And yes it's a sail in the wind compared to a weighted stick stabilizer, but if the conditions justify it, it comes off in 1 second easy as you could want. Or converts to conventional quiver position.

Aron Snyder has an interesting video on the tubes about how he sets his up a shortened rod and extra weight to get the stability from a more compact package. I just ordered the shorter rod to play around with configuration and balance.
 
Another vote for the Quivalizer. Balances well and lightweight. I cannot see myself moving away from it, awesome piece of gear.
 
I'll add another for the tight spot. After a night in the er for an arrow that fell out in the dark the tight spot is all I'm using.

Yes it blows around, but so does any other quiver.

You can argue that with a traditional quiver, you could take it off and leave your stabilizers on, and catch less wind. That's true, but then you're still dealing with an extra pound of weight, and packing the bars around that either stick out awkwardly or you have to take on and off.

You can pop the quivalizer off and shoot without it, but that does change your tune a bit.

I think the amount of scenarios where it's windy, you're still going to shoot, and you would be able to make the shot with a regular setup but can't with a quivalizer, is really low.
