Great Northern Quiver
« on: August 26, 2010, 08:38:00 PM »
A couple weeks ago, I purchased a Great Northern Adjustable quiver for my GN Ghost.  I adjusted it and had it mounted.  I was just curious if anyone has had any issues with them leaving marks on the limb finish?  I know it's all rubber coated, but was curious if over time they left marks on the finish?

I have no problems yet.I would bet over time they leave a light mark. But over time the truck, canoe,treestand and general use will leave far worse marks.

GN quivers have been on my hunting bows for over 15 years and I've never had them do any damage.  Great quivers; use and enjoy it with confidence.

I also have one of their longbow quivers.  I love the quiver and wouldn't trade it for anything.  That being said, I do have some marks where the quiver attaches to my HH bow.  I can't say for sure it was caused by the quiver, but they are in the same place it attaches.

I use them and really like them. Never left any marks to cause any concern.

Yeah they can leave a little smudge there over time, that depends on a couple of things though.  It is no big deal, anything like that can always be refinshed.  I only keep mine on when I'm hunting and don't have that problem anymore.  Don't sweat the small stuff  :)

Best of luck!

I have not noticed anything when I have used mine on my longbows.

No problem here either.

I agree w/ Kris' "smudge" term. I usually rub it away when it starts to bother me.

I like mine and never marked up a bow. Maybe a little black rubber mark but you can rub that off with some polish.

Nice quiet stable quiver
