Recommend a bow quiver please
« on: March 05, 2008, 04:33:00 PM »
Alright...I've been convinced to try a bow quiver once my JD Berry arrives.  Which are the models to consider. Obviously I want something quiet and light.  I do mostly bowhunting from a treestand.  Thanks for being so patient and helpful.    :thumbsup:

If you want to be able easily take it off while in your treestand like I do, I strongly recommend the German Ridge quivers. Very quiet, very easy, no tools or bolts or straps to worry about.

I would say either the Thunderhorn BOA Small Fry or the Eagles Flight both are very nice..

Selway, great northern, thunderhorn are all great quivers. I would love to find a good yardsale bow and install inserts for a kwikee kwiver...I'd even install inserts on a new bow like a bear Grizzly or a Martin Hunter......or a Blacktail.

Of the 2 (EFA & Boa) I'd definately favour the Eagles Flight. Just as secure & a lot lighter! For my mind the best bow quiver on the market, bar none (If you only need a 4 arrow!)

I've been using a GN for several years and really like it.  Recently, I picked up a used Kanati quiver that looks like it will work quite well. too.

I always take my quiver off once in the stand,and for me Eagles Flight is the way to go.I have 3 now.Although I recently purchased a possibles bag with attached quiver to give that a try since I've never really cared for a bow mounted quiver.

I've got the Selway detachable bow quiver on my recurve.  Have had it for 5 years and have been very happy with it.

I've owned them all and still have five GNs, a Kanati, and a small fry. The Kanati is a better quiver than the small fry, or the EFA. There is a little weight difference, but not enough to matter if you ask me. I like'em all, but keep coming back to the GN cause with the Kelly modification, you can keep the arrows inside of the bow rather than stickin' out like a snowplow. Any of them will work fine. If you stay with traditional long enough, you'll end up owning most of them anyway.

I like the new Kanati one piece angle. Straps stay on the bow and quiver is easy to remove with 2 thumb screws. Angle is adjustable to keep fletching behind bottom limb. 4 arrow weighs 7oz. Don

I have both the Kanati and the Great northern.  I like the Kanati much better!  Ron LaClaire from shrew made the Kanati the official Shrew bow quiver!!! Cant get a better promo then that!

Red,
From a two Berry owner to a new Berry owner, use a strap on that will not harm the great looks of it.
I have a GN strap on one and have just gotten a EFA strap on for my second. That EFA with the velcro is really sweet and alot smaller head on it.

As far as the BOA, they do offer a Lynx Bar, which tucks the arrows back into the limbs more, similiar to the Modification on the Great Northern..

In fact, I'm having mine converted as we speak, I will try and post pics when it comes back..
