    Im wanting one that holds 5 or 6 arrows. Im going to be hunting with the quiver on so it needs to be light and not stick out very far. I was looking at the Bohning Chameleon 5 arrow and the Apex Nano 5 arrow . My price range is around $30-$50. If you guys have had any experience with these quivers let me know your opinions. And if you have any other suggestions I would like to hear them.

    Have you looked at the Alpine Soft Lock, Diamond Ultra-Lite or Treelimb? I didn't use a quiver last season and I am looking into them now. I have one but its old and it was made for aluminum arrows and I shoot carbon. One of the features on a few of these is th built in tree hanger hook. I had bad luck with my arrows hitting limbs and parts of my stand while moving around on stand so I took it off. The tree hanger loop is perfect for me once on stand. All three I named are in your price range and are offered in 5 arrow configuration.

    I use the Alpine Soft Loc 5-arrow quiver, I love that thing. I probably only sits out about an inch and a half. As for hanging it on a tree, I just use one of the screw-ins made for accessories.

    I just picked up the Alpine Soft Loc 7 arrow quiver. Was about $60 or so.

    I'm using an Alpine Soft Loc on 1 bow and a TreeLimb on the other. Between the two, I prefer the TreeLimb, but that might cost a little more than your specified price range.
    Either would do a fine job for you.

    Q5 Ultra Lite would be another fine choice. Super light and has the perfect hanger on the top. It's very adjustable and simple too.

    I've got a Tree Limb on my Z34 but since I shoot the ultra thin Victory VAPs (nanos) the quiver does not hold them very well. I gotta find something that will hold arrows with that small diameter shaft.

    I've had an Alpine soft-loc. It was okay for a few years and then it didn't want to hold the arrows securely anymore. Then it started coming off my bow pretty easy. I could have bought new arrow grippers and bracket but after all that, I could have bought another quiver. I currently have an Apex Nano and to be honest with you, I don't like it that well. Depending on your sights, it can be difficult to remove. I will say it's probably the lightest weight quiver I've ever had. I have been looking at the Trophy Ridge six-shooter. Looks like a nice quiver at a very good price.

    Blessings......Pastorjim

    Alpine Soft-Loc here too. Been using the same quiver for about 8 or so years and it hasn't let me down. It can be a bugger to get off when its cold as the rubber hardens, but hasn't been much of an issue.

    I really like my Alpine Softloc! Although I don't have much experience with other quivers.

    Don't mean to hi-jack the thread but what are your preferences between the Q5 Ultra Lite, The Treelimb 5-Arrow, and the Mathew's Arrowweb T-5?
