Love the way the arrows are grouped in the gripper and the hood is nicely done, but the strap on system is not my favorite.  Could be more solid and the rubber gets dry easy and starts to crack

I bought one this winter, it was dead silent on my bow. Only con I have for it really wasn't that bad, the gripper got pretty stiff in cold weather but worked fine still. I only use bow quivers when I'm treestand hunting so I imagine I'll get a lot of seasons out of it since I personally devote more of my time hunting elk on the ground, versus whitetail from a stand.

Used one part of this season. I like the small size (mine is a medium). Straps seem to work fine and fit my $$$ better than some. Spare traps are cheap if they go anyway. I like it.

I had one but sold it. It worked well but I didnt like that the hood moved when inserting arrows.

Considering the price I really like the quiver. The arrows group tighter and you have to watch your feathers more than some quivers. Overall I am very pleased.

We have made several improvements for this year including the arrow gripper. I also have brackets to modify the quiver from strap on to side mount, limb bolt, side quiver and a deflex bracket to move the feathers back in alignment with the limb.
The deflex  mt vertually eliminates the quiver head flexing while inserting arrows although I've never found that to be a problem except when first installing arrows into a new quiver or nearly new and empty quiver.
The straps were improved last year and seem to have made a substantial difference and we just modified the die that cuts them in order to ease snapping the strap over the stud (in the past fresh straps could be a little difficult popping the small  holes over the stud).

We will have pictures of these on the web site soon and do a post here too. As of now, they are all ready for sale.
thanks, bigjim
