Title: Bow Quiver
Post by: Nole on March 02, 2011, 03:48:00 PM
I recently bought a Kanati Pro limb mount quiver and I am amazed at how much of the vibration that it takes out of my bow.  I have been using a side quiver for a long time now and put this one on and it is a great!  I like the side quiver for Turkey hunting in the spring but I may have to stay with the bow quiver, anyone else have similar findings?  On a side note John at Kanati is great to do business with.

I have a Kanati strap on model and I agree that it really deadens the bow and shots feel better with it on.  I'm now shooting a Dwyer endeavor though and a quiver just seems too big for that sleek little bow.  I'm all set to use a side quiver, but I'm afraid that if I put that Kanati on it I'll have to leave it on!

Yes, I have found that bow quivers make a bow quieter.  For anyone out there not familiar with Kanati quivers, visit their website.  These things are as pretty as the bows they sit on.

I used a back quiver for many years. Just got a Great Northern bow quiver and really like how it fells and it did quite my bow down. I was  really pleasantly surprised.

I put the quiver on when I got it 3 weeks ago and took it off last weekend to get used to it without it on there. I shot about a dozen arrows and I had to put it back on.  I always thought my bow had minimal hand shock but there is none with the quiver attached.

Ditto on the Kanati.  My Pro made a difference that I can tell!  Plus it looks dang nice!

Thanks guys! Nice to pull a little vibration out of a bow without putting rubber mushrooms all over it (LOL)

On my bows they reduce vibration and they seem to make them quieter.

It's a fact that a bow quiver can take vibration out of a bow. It can also stabilize a light weight bow to make it shoot a tighter group.

There is another thread on here, where I said this before, but on Tuesday night some of the guys and I were shooting in the shop for score. I took a bow off the wall and shot it reasonably well. Then I put one of our EFA Navajo I Jumbo I bow quivers on the bow. The first 4 arrows were touching each other shooting at a distance of about 14 yards. I was surprised that this bow, a Pinnacle II riser with Black Max limbs, would benefit from having a quiver on it, since it has a little more mass in the riser than most of the bows I shoot.
