Quivilizer? Anyone using them ? Thoughts?

[WyoBowhunter21]

I shot a quivalizer all preseason last year and have a different opinion than most. It made my bow extremely front heavy and was just a giant wind sail on the front of my bow. I noticed no different in groups out to 120 yards with it compared to my stokerized setup. If you decide you want one ill sell you mine for cheap. I really regret ever buying one in the first place.

This pretty much summed up my experience. Now at least you kept your stab. I sold all mine.

Eh so....I’m getting my gear ready for WA and OR elk and I’ve discovered I can not get more than 3 BH arrows in the hood. The three I can get are extremely tight, even had an edge barely stick out when placing them in. Really sucks bc I’m liking it, but I’m now worried about possibly cutting myself. If anyone has any suggestions I’m all ears as I’ve been shooting it all summer with FT using the foam with 5 holes, aluminum hood. I’m shooting QAD exodus 125 grains. I can go with 3 but was hoping for 5. I have other quivers/stabilizers so not the end of the world. That’s what I get for checking it this late I guess.

I've got the aluminum hood and fit 5 arrows with broadheads. It is very tight. I have 3 iron wills and 2 exodus. Not sure what head your using.

I fit 5 Magnus stingers in mine no problem (4 blade). I orient them all the same way.

I assume you've played with the orientation but if not try rotating them all one way (or alternating them) and see if you can't get something to work.

Thanks guys, I’ll play with it some more, just seems tight to where the blades are pushing on each other

Dan sent me a Quivalizer to try before they released them and I haven't went back, love them! Like was stated above, Option Archery was started by Dan Evans so you don't have to worry about product quality.


I use Hamskea rests and Quivalizers on all my bows. Show us a pic of your set up and we'll get you fixed up, they work great together.

Hi guys, help? The tube interferes with the Hamskea rest.

Hi guys, help? The tube interferes with the Hamskea rest.

On the mount that bolts to the bow, those holes are slotted so that it can be rotated forward and back, can you play with those to get it to rotate the bottom back enough to clear the rest?

I use a Hamskea with my Quivalizer, it works. As Mtnkid85 said, it is very adjustable.

You can also flip the bracket 180 and rotate the dovetail slot on the tube

 

[Dos Perros]

I can rotate it so that the fletchings of the arrows extend quite a bit beyond the string which is undesirable.

I can't flip the bracket 180 because it interferes with the sight.

@Tony Trietch do you have a picture you can share?

I have been using the Quivalizer for about four years and love it. I did add the Option Archery Cache-Bar to improve my side to side and front to back balance which carries useful items such as extra Broadheads, Allen wrenches, D-loop etc. I have seen my accuracy improve.

Thanks. Looks like your'e getting more standoff from your sight than I am.

 

[Tony Trietch]

What sight are you using?

Bringing this back to life to see if anyones had luck with it on a mathews vxr or similiar model. I bought one to try but its super front heavy. If i put my sode bar on with it and shft the hood closer the the riser so the nocks are behind the string it holds great but is super awkward to hold pre draw. Im guessing it just wont work great for this bow but curious of anyone had luck

 

[Colobwhntr]

I put mine on my V3X 33 it felt front heavy at first but got used to it fast. Won’t shoot without it!

 

[trevvamos]

Ran one last year on my V3X 29, balance wasn’t horrible, but for the compact style of hunting I do… less is more.

 

[bowhntr4lif]

I ran one on my v3 last year. Too long for my style of hunting and does sway in the wind a decent amount. Looking to sell it as I just went with wicksticks with a back bar
