tightspots are good, t5 is good as well. -
Tight Spot.
You may ask why, here is a few reasons.
A TightSpot Quiver slides in tight to your bow, where it exerts virtually no torque! For the first time, your quiver will help, not hinder your shooting. The TightSpot adjusts to the right spot on your bow to give you overall system balance and to fight accuracy-affecting torque.
The TightSpot Quiver's 3-Way Adjustment System lets you fine tune the balance of your bow using your quiver. The result will be an incredibly well-balanced hunting setup that will help you shoot better with your quiver on than you ever did with your old quiver off!
The 4-Way Integrated Vibration Absorption System attacks vibration from every conceivable angle. In fact, these features work so well that your bow will vibrate less with a TightSpot attached than with no quiver at all!
The Ultra-tough "hood" is virtually unbreakable! Tough enough that you can literally drive over the hood! It will not break! Made of a new space-age polymer, the low-profile hood also offers less wind resistance when shooting on windy days.
The arrow gripper system is so good on the TightSpot that you only need to put the tip of your broadheads under the hood. The hood on a TightSpot is extra deep so razor sharp blades are not exposed. This is safer and keeps the blades sharp as well. The result is broadheads that are ready to shoot and are not exposed.
One-handed quiver removal. A simple lift of the QuickLock Cam disengages the TightSpot Quiver from the dovetail base it rides along, allowing you to quickly and quietly removes the quiver or adjusts its position with just one hand! No need to grab the hood and risk a sliced finger like on other quivers. Slide TightSpot in close to your bow and it will balance like no other quiver! Pushed back down, the QuickLock Cam securely locks the quiver into place.
TightSpot's TailFanTM design positions arrows so fletchings won't vibrate together or make noise.
Quick Draw System keeps your #1 arrow in ready position. We’ve all been there... where we need to quickly remove an arrow from the quiver in order to get a shot. The TightSpot Quiver is unique in that the arrow gripper nearest you faces back at you instead of off to the side like the other grippers. This subtle difference means less conspicuous lateral movement and can make the difference between a fleeing animal and getting off the shot!
I could go on, but there is a reason to buy this quiver.

Apex game changer
Same features as the tightspot, $40 less, and looks betterComment

Really? I got nothing bad to say about the Apex Game Changer but from what I see there is no comparison in the two. But maybe I am missing something.Same features as the tightspot
Looks like Apex tried to copy the "get it close to the bow" but that is as close as they get. Might be a great quiver but it is not a Tight Spot IMO.Comment

Thanks for all the input. And here all I was worried about was the weight!Comment

See the above post and then go look at one, if you don't like it don't buy it. The only comparison I can see is both mount close to the bow. The below text is from their website.What is better about tightspot?
Holds arrows tight... always!
Individually adjustable arrow grippers assure no more loose or lost arrows!
Over time, or in cold weather, arrow grippers on all quivers tend to loosen. The exclusive Bulldog Gripper™ System (patent pending) on a TightSpot™ Quiver is different in that you can adjust the grip for each individual arrow. By simply moving the ArrowWedges™ in or out, you get a custom grip in each individual arrow slot. No more arrows making noise, vibrating loose or falling out of your quiver!
Better bow balance!
TightSpot™ acts more like a stabilizer than a quiver!
Adjust your quiver to the right spot with the TightSpot™. The TightSpot™ Quiver’s exclusive (patent pending) “RightSpot” 3-way Adjustment System lets you fine-tune the balance of your bow using your quiver. Now, your TightSpot™ will act much like a stabilizer, instead of adversely affecting your shooting like other quivers!
Dramatically reduced torque!
TightSpot™ is the world’s first low-torque quiver. It fits tight to your bow and is exceptionally lightweight, which means virtually no torque!
Why do so many bowhunters remove their quivers when hunting? Because they shoot better without their quivers! They are willing to give up having their arrows handy and a second shot to assure accurate shooting.
TightSpot™ Quivers fit tight to bow, minimize torque
The problem is the design of other quivers. The further a quiver is from the bow, the more torque it creates. Torque affects accuracy, throws your bow’s balance off and makes tuning more difficult, especially with broadheads. TightSpot™'s patent pending dovetail design eliminates this problem!
A lighter quiver exerts less torque
Proximity to the bow is only half the equation. The heavier the quiver, the more torque it exerts. TightSpot™ Quivers win here, too! A TightSpot™ Quiver is exceptionally lightweight thanks to vibration-absorbing wrapped carbon rods and machined aluminum that make up the quiver's frame!
Kills vibration!
The TightSpot™ Quiver’s 4-Way Integrated Vibration Absorption System attacks vibration from every conceivable angle. In fact, these features work so well that your bow will vibrate less with a TightSpot™ attached than with no quiver at all!
Quivers with a short “wheelbase” leave a lot of arrow unattached where it is free to vibrate and make noise, alerting game to where they might “jump the string.” On a TightSpot™ Quiver, the distance between the hood and the grippers is 18," the longest distance of any one-piece quiver! The result is less arrow and quiver vibration and less unwanted noise!
Super-premium wrapped carbon rods offer unsurpassed strength-to-weight ratio, absorb vibration.
One reason a TightSpot™ Quiver is so lightweight is that so much of its structure consists of two carbon rods. Unlike an arrow shaft, which is made of carbon that has a high fiberglass content, these carbon rods are constructed of wrapped carbon cloth which has a very high carbon content and is considerably more expensive. But, you get what you pay for. In this case, an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, excellent stability, and maximum vibration absorption. In fact, these rods work so well that your bow itself will vibrate less with a TightSpot™ Quiver attached than with no quiver at all!
QuadFit™ 4-way spacer lets you slide quiver against cable guard for another point of contact.
Rotate the QuadFit™ 4-way spacer, which has a different offset on every side, so the TightSpot™ Quiver nestles as tight as possible to your bow. This gives you another point of contact, absorbs vibration, and gives you a reference point so you can put the quiver in the same place every time.
Bumper strip on crossbar kills arrow vibration
The TightSpot™ Quiver is designed so your arrows rest against this bumper strip on the side of the quiver crossbar. This serves to dampen smaller vibrations for an even quieter bow!
Virtually unbreakable hood!
How tough is the hood on a TightSpot™ Quiver? Tough enough that you can literally drive over the hood! It will not break! Made of a new space-age polymer, the low-profile hood also offers less wind resistance when shooting on windy days.
Extra deep hood keeps broadheads covered features_deep hood. The TightSpot™ hood is extra deep so razor sharp blades are not exposed. This is safer and keeps the blades sharp as well.
New Foam-free hood insert. In other quivers, rear-deploying expandables tend to open when you bury them in the foam. With the new hood insert, only the tip of the broadhead is in contact with the quiver. No more dull blades from foam contact or accidentally opened expandables. Since broadheads can’t cut it, our new insert easily outlasts foam inserts 10 to 1!
New “Lipped” insert covers edge of hood. The new insert in the TightSpot™ Quiver features a lip that covers the edge of the hood which silences any accidental contact between the broadhead and the hard polymer quiver hood.
One-handed quiver removal. A simple lift of the QuickLock™ Cam disengages the TightSpot™ Quiver from the dovetail base it rides along, allowing you to quickly and quietly remove the quiver or adjust its position with just one hand! No need to grab the hood and risk a sliced finger like on other quivers. Slide TightSpot™ in close to your bow and it will balance like no other quiver! Pushed back down, the QuickLock™ Cam securely locks the quiver into place.
TightSpot™’s TailFan™ design positions arrows so fletchings won’t vibrate together or make noise. Made wider, the fletching end on the TightSpot™ Quiver fans the arrows so the vanes won’t touch or vibrate together, making noise.
Quick Draw™ System keeps your #1 arrow in ready position. We’ve all been there... where we need to quickly remove an arrow from the quiver in order to get a shot. The TightSpot™ Quiver is unique in that the arrow gripper nearest you faces back at you instead of off to the side like the other grippers. This subtle difference means less conspicuous lateral movement and can make the difference between a fleeing animal and getting off the shot!
Optional bracket for use with moveable sights. Because it tucks in so tight, TightSpot™ may get in the way of some moveable sights. Our new, optional bracket solves this problem by placing the quiver behind and above the sight giving you full access to the sight without compromising the adjustability of your TightSpot™.Comment

I like my T5..Comment

Yep seen that and seen them thats why I chose the other.. The difference is adjustable arrow grippers but the apex has dual grippers that work small diameter arrows also... Not for everyone but definitely a good optionComment

T5 for sureComment

X3 because I've never had a problem with it, it's easy to remove it when I get to my stand, and it looks better on the bow than any other.Originally posted by MD2TX View PostComment
