Title: Bow Quiver
Post by: Coach Jones on September 07, 2010, 04:43:00 PM
Looking for quiver options for my Great Northern Ghost.  Considering a quiver from Eagle Flight Archery or a Kanati quiver.  Wanting something light weight.  Any thoughts appreciated.

For my ghost I prefer those Skookum zip tie ones. The Kananti quiver is top notch and I love it on my Martin Hunter, but I think  the added weight feels akward on such a light bow.
My dad prefers the plastic hood thunderhorn on his ghost.

You cannot go wrong with Eagle Fight Archery.  I think they are among the very best bow quivers on the market.

I used Eagle's Flight and Selways on mine.  Both work good.

I put an Eagle's Flight on a longbow of mine.  It seems to make the bow shoot better, and feel better.  It adds some substance to it.  Doesn't throw the balance off, it actually feels better with it on.  :thumbsup:

Great Northern makes a really good quality 5 arrow strap on quiver. You can't go wrong with anything from Rick & Jerry.

My GN Critter Gitter wears a GN quiver.  Actually, the GN quiver is the only bowquiver I use anymore.

I haven't used the Kanati but I hear a lot of good things about them.I use an EFA and can not imagine how you could make a lighter or quieter qiver.

Coach Jones, there are several good good bow quivers available including the two that you mentioned. At EFA we give you more choices than anyone else with different sizes, models, and fastening systems. We make both stock quivers and custom. We can even make a quiver using your leather. We make a little 3 arrow "Mini" that weighs only 3.2 Ounces for those who want a minimum on the bow, and we also make 4 arrow and 5 arrow quivers.

All of our quivers are designed to be as lightweight as possible, and weigh less than anything comparible. They also fit tight to the bow.

Not to detract from any other maker, and especially  TG sponsors. A couple of them even also happen to be good personal friends of mine (Don, of EFA, and John, of Kanati/Anneewakee Arcery) but just to add my two cents worth.

I used to use Thunderhorn (some years back) and liked them a lot but once John Dill started making his Kanati quivers, at Anneewakee, and asked me to try out one of his first ones, I have been using them, and loving them, ever since (except when shooting all wood primitive bows). I currently have one of John's new Kanati Slim Jim, a 3 single blade broadhead quiver, on my Anneewakee Addiction bow and cannot say enough good about it and/or John's service and attention to the design of his products.

Here's my bow, "Blackie", w/ the Slim Jim hunting quiver using one of it's 3 or 4 mounting options:
