![]() It has proven to be plenty durable (it’s still alive and kicking on my backup bow), and I’ve never noticed it creating a lot of noise or vibration during the shot. This is a 6-arrow quiver that came stock on my ready-to-hunt bow package, and I put several seasons of hard use on this one. It appears that the 5-Spot is the updated version of this one (even though it’s a 5-arrow quiver instead of 6). So, here’s the breakdown…įull disclosure, at the time of this writing, this is an older model that Trophy Ridge doesn’t make anymore. ![]() ![]() All three of these are in the $30-45 range, and I have spent actual days in the field with each of them. What I have done is use three different budget-friendly quivers over the past couple years, and I figured other people in the same boat might like to know what is the best bang for the buck. I have not been able to bring myself to drop $150 on such a “meh” piece of gear. That being said, I’m now at a point in my archery journey where I have fairly top of the line everything in my setup…except the quiver. No offense to Tight Spot Archery (or any other company that makes shockingly expensive quivers), but we’re talking about the thing that holds your arrows…that’s ALL it does! As long as it stays on your bow and holds onto your arrows, what on earth could possibly be worth the five-times as much you charge for your boutique arrow receptacle? But, of all the accessories to improve your bowhunting experience, I have never understood the price that a top of the line quiver retails for. I’m amazed at how my shooting improved when I switched to the Elite Ritual this year (check out the full review here). Now, I’m a big believer in getting into the best archery equipment you can afford and that you shoot well. And while you can absolutely get up and running for a few hundred bucks, the deeper you get into the obsession, the more money you’re going to spend on newer and better gear. Bowhunting is an expensive sport! The bow itself, the endless accessories, heaven forbid you lose or break an arrow during practice (when you start looking at cost-per-errant-shot, it’s a sobering reality).
