After spending the last several years trying to keep my Boa from sliding up and down my limbs, I finally bought a GN last month. Best thing I ever did! Does not budge!

I did have to drill into the back of the hood and run a screw into the metal safety shield and hood foam. The whole thing started rattling and sliding out of the hood. Not a big deal, I usually do the same thing with all my quiver hoods.

great northern...can serve as a bow OR side quiver with nothing more then a piece of parachute cord, and it's light!

Been using the Greast Northern for the past 10 years. I don't like to shoot with a quiver on my bow and the GN is easy on easy off.

KANATI Angle  best I have ever used!! Keeps the arrows from sticking in the ground or out in front of my bow. They are a sponser check them out (top of 1st page).

If you can't have an Eagle Flight I'd choose the GN quiver.

I haven't used a bow quiver for several years, find I prefer a side quiver I got from Dean Tourges, however I used a GN for many years with no problems. Attaches very solidly is is quiet. Easy on and off.

I used a bow quiver for awhile, but it felt cumbersome when I shot. I went to a side stalker quiver from Jack Bowers (I believe) and haven't gone back. I do like the way the GN attaches though.

I like em both and have used both alot.I like the eagles flight as well with the Talon grip.Never used the Kanati.Looks good though.

I like the Thundehorn lynx small fry boa alot and mine does not migrate up the limb do to the rigid aluminum bar.The arrows also sit back at an angle which is the best arrangement for hunting.The kanati has the angle quiver that has the same function.

If was gonna have just one quiver it would probably be the Thunderhorn Lynx.Its good looking,functional,strong,reasoably light and well made.I do like the other ones as well though.The great northern adjustable has served me very well and I like the ultra lightweight of the Eagles flight.I honestly use them all.

I like the GN adjustable model so I can get it to fit just right. I also like to modifiy it the way Kelly showed on his old site which allows the fletch part of the arrows to come inside of the bow. Great quiver!

I like the Alaska supply SKOOKUM dual. It holds 2 broadhead arrows at teh ready. Shoots the same to me with or without it. I carry the extras in a catquiver mini on my backpack.

I use the GN and give the lower wire mount a twist so it sets on the side of the riser. This keeps the arrows even or slightly behind the bow so it doesnt catch on brush.

I use a EFA right now and love it but, have been wanting to try Selways Slide On for longbows.

Kanati angle seems to work well have one on a LB, also have a couple GN's they have been working well for a long time. I would recomend both as a good quiver.

I used to use a GN and if I didn't like my Kanati strap on so much I'd probably use the GN again.

The GN works on all my bows.  They're the best I've used to date.  I have both the adjustable and the non-adjustable model.  They're "Great"!

Same as PowDuck and BobW.  Virtually no weight at all and pretty inexpensive to boot.
