Have one on my widow. Love it. It's the best quiver I've used yet hands down

I modified my Great Northern quiver to do that about 12 or so years ago. Easily done on any of their quivers-would never use one without it. I want my arrows back inside the bottom limb-not out in front of it.

The Kickback feature was the last little thing the GN quivers needed to make them PERFECT!  Light weight, excellent broadhead protection and feather spacing now without all of it sticking out in front of your bow. Thank you Bob!

This is a KB with a long hood. The broadhead is a 260g Snuffer and it just has the very tip in the alignment hole, not even pushed into the rubber/foam. I always order from GN proper so I can get the long hood.

The long hood is key especially for the longer heads

Good point Steve....

I'll more than likely pick one up at Kalamazoo this winter.  Hard to improve on the best, but it has just been done.

are you guys refering to the straight kickback or the extreme?thanks for the comments.

Post by: Steve O on October 05, 2013, 05:08:00 PM
I have both.  Just depends how much kickback you want.  What kind of bow are you putting it on?

Im puting it on a mild RFDF longbow 64"

So, with a short riser like that, I think you would be fine with the standard.  On a long riser take down recurve, the extreme give that extra to keep the fletching back.
