Title: ACS CX shooters, what bow quiver
Post by: plentycoupe on March 10, 2009, 10:39:00 AM
For those of you that have one of these bows and use a bow quiver, what kind do you use and what do you think of it?

I was thinking of a side quiver, but I don't want to have another thing hanging off of me while sneeking through the woods.

Thanks for the replys

Hey Jason,
I've tried just about all of them and keep coming back to the Alpine quiver mounted using our custom brackets.

http://acsbows.com/quiver.html

Rock solid yet easily removable.  I customized mine by replacing the two short carbon rods of the quiver with long wooden dowels.  I then formed a basket/hood/protector for my fletching out of fine-gauge chicken wire and covered it with camo fabric.  Not necessary but I've busted a lot of brush in your current home state with the system and I wouldn't have anything else mounted on my bow.

If you do decide on a side quiver you cannot go wrong with Rod Jenkins' side quiver (look up SafariTuff in the sponsor list).

I use a detacthable type quiver and holster it on my hip, but I like to attach it to the bow when I pull up into the tree stand(safety first).

I took a piece of aluminum angle and fashioned a bracket similar to the A&H setup, only using one bracket. I was a little concerned it would vibrate and create some noise but it is dead silent. Gave myself a gold star for that one.

I like the EFA myself.

I just got one and tapped it and added bushings for a side mount Selway, works great.

I have a Kanati on mine, and it works great! They are a sponsor here also (Anneewakee Archery).

Vermonster13, Is that EFA you use the strap on or limb bolt style? I was thinking about getting the limb bolt style for mine. Steve

I use the new Talon strap on and it works great. Doesn't add much weight to the bow which I prefer and even helps quiet it a bit more.

Steve I have both the bolt on and strap on EFA and you can't go wrong with either.  But I do prefer a bolt on for a take down.

I agree with madness.  I have both, but prefer the limb bolt for the ACS.  I substitute a Selway gripper for the EFA gripper on the lower unit to offset the arrows so they're more parallel with the lower limb.  Looks and works great.

Great Northern Quick Mount. Best there is.

I like the ELF as well with the talon grip.Works great on Morrisons Shawnee as well.

The great northern limb bolt is nice as well since the quiver will sit real close to the riser when you slide it in for good balance and a good feel on the bow.

I'll second the Kanati.  I have the angle and it is real good stuff.
