Post by: BUCKY on June 24, 2011, 06:53:00 PM
Can you really fit 5 broadheads in there? I would love to see some pics if you have them.What about fletching clearance?

I use one and shoot either 160 grn Snuffers or Grizzly El Grande's both pretty big heads. You can't just stuff them in there any old way but with a little thought it will hold 5 of these big boys.

So yes, it will hold five.

Can't do pictures, but I can get 5 ww's or Snuffers in one. No problew with fletching either. Love my GN strap on.

I shoot 1 1/2" wide GK Silverflame BH's and have no problem fitting 5 in my GN quiver. It is the only quiver I use (I use the QD quiver with the quick detach feature on my takedowns).

I can fit 5 in both of mine no problem, but I really have no desire to walk around like Ted Nugent with a full aresonal of arrows in the quiver when 1, maybe 2 tops is all that is needed.  That is why I take 3 Broadheads placed on the outside of the quiver, and 1-2 judo heads or blunts on the inside slots for plinking/stumping on the way to the stand, or for small game.  

Not to mention, I just don't like pulling the broadheads from the inner slots of the quiver.  I'm always afraid that I'm going to either nick my hand pulling from the inner slot, or cut the string or worse yet, both of those.  So that is why I don't like carrying more than 3 BH's with me, even though the quiver is more than capable of doing so.

Room for 5 zwickey deltas, but like Mike above, I only have three broadheads on the outside and two judos on the inside.

While I usually don't use a bow quiver, when on a mountain hunt wearing a pack I use a Great Northern quiver on my Pronghorn TD longbow and felt it required no adjustment that I could tell.  Loved it.  And yes, five broadheads (Woodsmen) fit fine.
