I want a quiver I can carry without the arrows bouncing around. Will the hood of the GFA cover woodsman elite broadheads?
-
I have one and it will cover a 160 grain snuffer or 160 grain grizzly. It is a bit tight with the snuffers but I think the diameter on the woodsman heads is smaller so I believe it should work okay.

Ive used the elites in my GFA with zero problems. If your looking for a used one, shoot me a PM.

The GFA quiver will work fine with any broadhead that I am aware of. The Snuffer is the biggest head out there and it will fit. The Woodsman Elite is not a big head and will fit easily. I am using 4-blade Eclipse and there's tons of room for them.gfa

Now that is what I call service. Ask a question and the master responds. Gotta love this site. :thumbsup: :notworthy:

Yes it will. I have one and love it. Great quiver that suits me and my hunting style to a T.
-
I knew it would be fine width wise but wasn't sure about length. Sounds like it will work fine. Thanks Mr. Asbell and everyone else.

Great Quiver. It's the only thing I have used the last 3 years.

I made my own with an old Selway quiver.

The GFA is the best quiver, ever.

Yep, Use a GFA myself and the WW heads is all I shoot.Cant beat the quiver for stalking. Nice to see you posting Mr GFA. Shane

Have not found a quiver i like.Dislike the whole ideal. But the GFA is the best i have found for my style of hunting.Works great but i still dont like it.

I am carrying 4 Magnus Stingers with the bleeder blades in my GFA quiver, and they all fit fine.
-
They need to sell em for $30 so the cheap guys like me can carry one!
-
I like my GFA but would love it with a bit of upgrade to the arrow gripper. The small is too small for anything but carbons and very small diameter alums and the large too big for anything but woodies or alum logs like 2413s or 2315s. Could stand to be beefed up a touch too.
Kind of leaves us guys who shoot stuff like 2117s-2314's out of luck...
How about a two level gripperr like on my Hoyt & Chuck Adams Arrow Holster? The first opening holds bigger shafts and it has a smaller diameter opening immediately behind it for carbons...
-
Try electrical shrink tubing over the grippers. My 2018's are now nice and snug. 3/4" if you were wondering.
-
I built my own as well using a 70's model Delta II. It looks the same (Sorry Mr. Asbell), and I am looking forward to great things. Fantastic idea!!!!!!!!!!! :clapper:
-
I've been thinking of getting one. I now have a selway and it works great for me, but it leaves marks in the glass limbs of my recurve.Can you tell me how you carry it and why you like it?
-
I like the GFA, fits any head I have seen, and am almost done with my version of the St Charles style back quiver, aother great style where the arrows stay put.
-
High/low under my arm, pushed to my back, hanging from a limb on stand, and laying on the ground in a blind all of the ways GFA wrote about in Traditional Bowhunter several years ago.
I like it because it makes my bow "feel" better!!! Just a preference.

I got the Moose Hide one from Ron - nice

Watch the Classifieds.......daily!
That's where I found mine; made a trade for it actually. Very good trade.....I love it!

NDTERMINATOR:The gripper assembly is made to be adjustable. Tighten or loosen the small philips head screws that hold the rubber and the compression plates together. Tightening squeezes the rubber together, which reduces the size of the shaft space. I use the large gripper and I can adjust it to fit 2020's or 23/64 woodies...and do that regularly. Good luck G.

Outstanding!
I've owned that quiver for years and had no idea, when I changed grippers I just snugged them up. Come to think of it, I don't believe it had any instructions/paperwork when I bought it.
As long as we're on this subject can say, the two rear grippers be adjusted to hold different sized arrows than the front rows, without affecting the front?
Just goes to show a guy can learn something new every day.
Thanks...
