Title: Best Quiver for Bear Take-Down
Post by: Kid's Pastor on February 05, 2013, 07:24:00 PM
I have just ordered a new bubinga B riser and #3 limbs this week and I am trying to figure what bow quiver works the best on the Bear Take-Down, especially on the longer B riser.

Thanks,

Paul

Great Northern bolt on is what I use and think that it is the best.  Had one of the Bear/Delta quivers originally and gave it away.  The GN quiver was much better.

dino,

How are you attaching a gn bolt on to a Bear Takedown? No limb bolts, Unless it is a side mount and the bow has inserts. My Bear Type 1 does not have inserts and neither does the Supreme I have coming. A Great Northern strap on or Thunderhorn BOA will be going on both of those as I am not about to drill holes in them for inserts.

I use a side mount of my own design patterned after a Selway. Selway side mount would work well if your bow is tapped for it.  Otherwise, Danny has some good suggestions.

Great northern work best.
Either side mount or rubber straps.

Danny,
Its the bolt on that uses the 1/4"x20 quiver bushings installed in the riser (GN calls it a side mount quiver) I have a 2001? A Handle that came with quiver bushings installed.  I wouldn't be drilling a Type 1 either.  :scared:

A Bear 4-arrow with the spring arm top and lower bracket is pretty classic. You can find them up for auction party often.
A great option is the bighorn quiver from cutting edge. I have one on each of two of my Bear TD bows and they are great. If you need a contact for the bighorn, let me know.

I took my GFA quiver and changed the brackets from the straps to the new bear bolt on brackets and love it.

Old thread, I know, but am wondering if this is still the consensus as to the best quiver options for a Bear takedown recurve?
Also, which of the sponsors handle these quivers?
Thanks.

Kevin, we have a really solid, quiet option outside of the side mount. Our Longbow quick detach filed out a little fits really snug right above the latch.

Great northern side mount if it has the bushings (or you're willing to drill and install yourself).

If it has the side mount bushings installed... I'd go with the GN side mount quiver!!! I had a Delta quiver, and did not like it at all! Got the GN and it's been on there ever since!!!

If you have side mount bushings the Selway cannot be beat.  I tried a Great Northern but it seemed to vibrate to me while the selway was rock solid.

I have and hunt with a Bear, all Burbinga takedown,B riser, with #3 limbs. The Thunderhorn side mount quiver is perfect on this bow. Quiet, rugged and just flat good looking. PM me with your  cell # and I will text pictures if your interested. Mine is not for sale but Thunderhorn quivers are readily available.   :campfire:

Any pictures of this longbow quick detach?
Also, with the longbow quick detach vs. the side mount, which would you recommend?
Thanks!

I've used a GN strap on my b riser for the last twenty some years. Easy on and off.

Kevin text me and i will send you some pictures. I would personally do the QD over the side mount. Simply because it spaces the hood and gripper out further.

thunderhorn is what I like best, keeps the arrows flat as possible to the riser, i dont like  alot of width in my bow quiver combo profile.

GN side mount.  I did make a little aluminum bracket on the bottom to make it an offset quiver.  I think GN makes an offset quiver but mine isn't .

I bought a used Delta at Denton Hill.....cleaned it up, gave it a camo job and it's perfect. Rock solid and silent. Maybe a bit heavy but the bow is heavy anyway.

Kanati Pro strap on, none of my bows have inserts. One quiver for all.

Marksman bowquiver. The maker of these quivers actually uses a bear take down.

I had Thunderhorn make me a side mount with the leather dyed to match my bubinga and black maple riser. Great quiver.

Still weighing my options for a quiver. If a person has a strap on quiver is it best mounted to the lower limbs, or to the riser of the bow? Does mounting to the limbs affect performance?
Thanks.

mount it within the fade out on the limb and you'll be fine.
