Need some advice on a quiver
I need a quiver for my Mathews Rival Pro. Which is quitest, 1 or 2 piece? I'm just getting back into bowhunting after a 6 year layoff, so this is the 1st of many questions to come.

Vaboy, This is another one of those "personal choices". I have the 2 piece and it is quiet. I've done the hip-back thingy and didn't like it. But that's me. Occassionaly you must make adjustments to these quivers. I didn't have to. LOL

RE: Need some advice on a quiver
i use a kwicky on both of my bows. but i do not know how quiet is because i buy an extra mounting bracket and put it on my stand. when on stand i remove my quiver and attach it to my stand. when shooting in the back yard or 3-d i use a hip quiver.

RE: Need some advice on a quiver
I bought a Rancho Safari Catquiver II this year and I can't say enough good things about it ....I wouldn't hunt with anything else!!
Their a little pricy ($90), but after hunting with it I think it's money well spent.

RE: Need some advice on a quiver
I like my one piece mathews quiver, and it is quiet. But, when hunting i take it off. If you shoot with your quiver on, then go with the 2 piece. If you take it off though, then go with either the one piece mathews quiver, or a kwikee quiver. I just like mathews quivers, they look cool.

VAboy, I've always used a hip quiver - always will. I don't want anything on my bow that doesn't need to be there. I snap my quiver to my fanny pack and belt it to the tree when I get in my stand. Jim

RE: Need some advice on a quiver
Thanks for all the info.
Will any of the Mathews 2 piece quivers fit the Rival pro?
I know they make 2 different 1 pc quivers. 1 for 38" and shorter and 1 for longer (my bow is 40"
. The hip quiver sounds nice, but where I hunt here in SW VA it is pretty thick in some places (meaning briars), so I probably won't go that route. As for the Mathews price, I'm not one to buy a new setup every yr, so I don't mind paying a little extra. I do like the idea of removing the quiver once on stand.
