Quiver on or quiver off?

Been quiver on after needing a follow up shot on a spined buck and a brisket shot button buck...the balance never been a issue just learn how to shot my bows that way...now a cross wind is a different story...
 
Anyone try the Quivalizer stabilizer quiver?
 
On walking to my spot, off once I arrive. Practice both ways.
This. Also I don't want my arrows wraps and feathers being another thing moving in the moment of truth. Another thing for me is the Kansas wind can blow my bow around a lot, taking the quiver off helps with that.
 
I keep my quiver on..... Do u guys practice shooting with it on or off? I practice with it on also.
Main thing is practice how you hunt. I practice both ways and it changes my poi a little left to right. I also mounted my quiver upside down which balances the bow so much better than having it rigjt side up.
This is for a halon x.
 
I have it on when walking to my spot, but when I get at hunting height I take it off. Makes the bow lighter and less chance of arrows hitting something. I have my quiver within reach to be able to grab another arrow quickly. I say take it off while hunting in a stand.
 
Always on...own a two piece to reduce the urge to remove...
 
I use a tight spot 5 arrow quiver; when loaded with 5 arrows at 515 grains a piece, it definitely affects the balance, so I do take it off when at height. A back bar stabilizer helps counterbalance the weight of the quiver, though. Thinking about changing to a 3 arrow tight spot...when hunting from a saddle or stand, I don’t think I’d need more than 3.
 
how much gear do you have in the tree with you? I’ve been leaving it on my bow to minimize having to much stuff hanging in the tree with me but I may just have to much gear lol
Hilarious. I first read your response this way and thought... Well that's one way to cut weight!

"how much gear do you have in the tree with you? I’ve been leaving my bow to minimize having to much stuff hanging in the tree with me"

If you use a pack, lashed to the pack may be an option.

I like to be able to hang my bow on the left as well as the right of the tree, so I remove the quiver to do so. To avoid interference, I like everything else hooked to my pack or available from exterior pockets. That's grunt tube, quiver, and sometimes binos or range finder.
