Default New to Bows - tuning question

I bought a diamond deploy with a QAD Ultrarest and the rest rubs against my quiver preventing the rest to operate properly.
What is the best way to fix this? Are there spacers I can get to extend the quiver out slightly?

Also, my peep sight (peep hole?) never seems to line up properly, how hard is this to adjust myself?

Finally, any recommendations on stabilizers? How much does length and brand matter? I will be using for hunting.

Thanks everyone!

Depending where you are go to a proshop like Jimbows or Accurate Archery, you will be able to try stabilizers and have a half twist put in your string and have your other questions answered.

Default adjust your quiver...

You should be able to move your quiver slightly, so it doesn't impede your rest. Assuming that the rest is properly positioned, you can usually move your quiver and solve your problems...but like Lefty says, go somewhere like Jim Bows and they will sort you out too...

Default stabilizer

If using your bow for hunting do not get too long of a stabilizer or you will regret it hitting branches etc when hunting.

I have added a spacer at my quiver mount to move quiver further away. Just need longer bolts

Tight spot makes an extension bracket that might help you. I use it to bring my quiver higher on my bow as I use a cheap kwiikee quiver and long arrows. I can't really adjust the quiver high enough and the bracket solved this for me.

I have seen some shorter stabilizers that you can put more weight on the end.
Adjustable and adds stability.
