I've had great luck with Shrew, Thunderhorn, and Great Northern.

Don't have a quiver on my Beeler longbow yet, but I plan to get one of the Eagles Flight mini quivers before next season. We probably want one for different purposes however........ I just want one to stick a couple arrows in while sitting in a treestand to keep them handy. Either way, I've heard great reports about them.

I haven't had much luck with Bow quivers on longbows. I use a Lakota style side quiver and now an Arrowmaster. My son and I both bought EFA quivers and were dissapionted with them , we couldn't get them to stay put and everytime we shot the other arrows fell out. We had to use large elastic bands to hold our arrows in. ,I just recently gave mine away on the Christmas giveaway. I'm sure the new ones are better.
Quote from Howard Hill.( Whenever he taught someone to shoot) "Son make up your mind right now if you want to target shoot or hunt as theres a world of differance between the two"

EFA is what I am using on my bows now but I am only using the bolt on model. My dad is using the new strap on model which seems to be working out for him.

Thunderhorn also makes a great quiver but they are a little on the heavy side for my likes.

I am going to give the Kanati a shot once I get my 1 piece longbows in. Never tried one but have heard nothing but good thing about them. They also make the Shrew quiver if I am not mistaken.

Eagle Flight! You don't even know it's there until you need an arrow.

I like my Thunderhorn. It holds great and puts most of the fletching behind the bow limb.

I don't care for bow quivers either.  I use a GFA, and a Mike's Archery Leather back quiver.  

Dispite what anyone tells you, a bow quiver WILL make your bow shoot, and handle different, and I don't care who makes the quiver.  You absolutely need to tune your bow with the quiver on the bow or arrow flight will change once the bow quiver is put on the bow.

You don't need a bow quiver if you learn to properly use a back quiver, or side quiver.  I like my bow naked.

I've used a GN strap on for many years.  I modify it per Kelly to bring the fletch back into the bow.

I agree with Stringdancer that you need to check tune with the quiver attached and full of arrows.

Whichever bowquiver you use, make sure it mounts well into the riser and not on the fadeouts or limb.
Good judgement comes from experience.  Experience comes from bad judgement.

I own a couple of Thunderhorn Mini Boas. I think the smaller quiver is a better match for a longbow. Someone stated that their arrows would work loose or fall out of their bow quiver when they shot.  :eek:  I learned the hard way about that. You shouldn't leave arrows in your quiver ALL THE TIME. Only when hunting or at the 3D range. This way the rubber grippers will stay nice and tight.

I was never much for Bow quivers till this fall when Don sent some Eagle flights to review. I like the small quivers.
No trouble at all this year using them .Arrows stayed put, quiet and the quivers didn't move.
For shooting I didn't see any diference in acuracy.
Pete
Share your knowledge and ideas.

Mr.Chuck

I have three of the great northerns!  They are quiet and solid.  The only problem is they don't work real well on skinny arrows! I use both the short and adjustable ones!
