What do you do with your quiver in the tree?

Unread postby MitchB » Tue May 23, 2023 3:29 pm

I haven’t yet found a great way to hang my quiver in the tree. In fact last year I ended up leaving it on my bow for every hunt. That worked okay, but I do prefer to shoot with the quiver off. What does everyone else usually do? Is there something out there that’s a great product for this? Two years ago I clipped it to my HSS strap. Last year I used an 8mm rope instead of the strap, but I suppose I could try that with the rope too.

I only hunt public land so nothing that screws into the tree is an option for me.

On my Beast stand I use a Sparrow. Saddle hunting I either hang it from a strap on gear hanger or bungee cord it around the tree.

I have a small screw in tree hook that got from Wally World for about a buck or so. Hang my quiver on it.
I'm reason they call it hunting and not shooting.

Hang it on my gear strap or leave it on my bow.

I always have one of the smaller gear ties on my quiver. I had it come unattached once while moving through some thick stuff- so I leave it tied on the quiver so I can wrap it around my bow riser if I have to. The gear tie comes in handy if I want to tie it to a branch or have it more secure than just hanging from my gear strap.

For over 20 years of shooting a recurve, I could not imagine not having my quiver on my bow. Several times I had to reload and it was easy.

After going to the compound a good balanced quiver was hard to find. I shot Hoyt but thought the Matthew's system was the best and well balanced.

I always hated having to hang it. But eventually I did. Just used a simple screw in hanger.

Now that I have to use a xbow, I know I am one and done

Like others, I have a gear strap to wrap the tree.

Mine is a DIY amsteel rope with a couple hooks and an S-biner for the connection. Having 2 uses for an item is how I ended up with this rope. It hangs my stand while I'm securing the actual tree stand strap.
The quiver just hangs from the hook after sliding it up a little away from the stand strap.

I pretty much do the same, but with an extra stand strap connected by a caribiner. Then either hang the quiver off it or a S-biner like JDF mentioned. I really like those things.

I hang mine from the rope loop ontop of the quiver, usally by a S carabiner or if you find that perfect tree, than off a branch. I can't shoot my bow with a quiver as I have grown accustomed to shooting with the quiver off.

Thanks Ghost!

Now with my recurve I picked up last year, shooting with a quiver just feels right!

I leave it on my bow or wedge it between branches in a tree.
...you go up that ridge, I'll go down in the swamp.... We'll get that buck.
