Title: Great Northern Strap on quiver
Post by: aim small...release on November 28, 2014, 09:17:00 AM
Are they worth the $??? Being a michigan native ive been really looking at replaceing my current quiver with a great northern strap on. Do they stay on good as well

My experience is they are very stable and do not slip.  Would get the adjustable one.

I love mine, the adjustable strap-on model fits any bow I've owned. Some good deals show up on the classifieds if the new price is a concern.

Mine is very solid. Only complaint is I wish the hood was a little deeper.

Best quiver out there! I have tried several different quivers over the years, mostly for a different look, but always seem to sell those and come back to my GN!

Like almost everything in traditional archery, a lot of this is personal preference, so what we tell you, may not be exactly true for you.

But, you cannot beat the workmanship or quality of a GN!

I tried one TWICE. Sold both of them. I just prefer Thunderhorns better. Small fry.   BILL

I have one but usually choose my Thunderhorn Small Fry--have two of them and prefer them. But the GN is a good quiver and stays put well.

Love mine. By the way, you can special order a deep hood. I have no problem covering 3" long Ribtek broadheads.

Best quiver ever made. Been using the same one for 20 years. Love it. I also did a video on how to make it a six arrow quiver if you check my site in my signature.

That's all I use and I only hunt with a bow quiver!

There has been a GN strap on hanging on my bow since the early 90's at least.  If it wasn't quiet and solid it would have been gone long ago.     :thumbsup:

Excellent quivers! A must have. I favor the Kickback adjustable version. I am really hoping he will make a mini version that holds 3 arrows. I quiver up my Toelke hill style with a Kanati though because its a lot lighter.

agree they are great quivers BUT that being said i have had mine for quite a few years but last year the bottom wire broke next to the arrow holder...not sure why but i know it wasnt because of abuse...i taped a nail to it as a splice and keep on using it...JM2CW

I tried for decades to find something better. Once the Kickback model was introduced a few years ago my only want was addressed. Deep hood Kickback Extreme is perfection.

Light weight, quiet, excellent broadhead protection, great feather spacing. Perfection.

Top that off with an owner like Bob Brumm who is an all around good guy and I won't buy any other brand.

I have a few of them and they are exceptional in craftsmanship and functionality. Their customer service is also top of the line. Good folks to deal with!

I agree.  They are high quality quivers.  I have three.  One side mount and two strap ons.  Any one want one of my snap ons pm me.

I have used a lot of the different brands of strap on quivers over the years and the GN adjustable is by far the best of them all.

One of the best quivers ever made....You can't go wrong with a Great Northern IMO.

Solid quiver,  occasionally you might pick up some noise in the hood with the wire.

I have a couple GN and a few other brands (TH and Selway)of quivers. I like them all, but once the kickback GN came out that is the only one I'll ever buy from here on.

Awesome quivers.

Solid on the bow.

Great workmanship.

Big Jims are nice too.

I own 3 GNs and 2 Big Jims.
