Pros and cons to bow quivers...slide on vs strap on vs etc

[Briar Friar]

Vs quick detach.

Im looking at Selways and Great Northerns but I am open to any brand that is American made.

Bolt on are not an option for my one piece Lynx.

Thanks in advance.

I have a strap on two piece that came with my PSA. I didn't think I would like shooting with it on as I never did with my compounds. However it has worked out well. I did turn it so the heads face down but it's not too bad of a set up.

So you strap it on your bow upside down? Just trying to figure out what you are describing and what that looks like.

[DRT]

Yes. The arrows would work loose with the heads facing up.

I keep going back to EFA and drooling over their Short Mesa 3 arrow quivers. Can't see any reason to carry more than that for deer/hog hunting.

I use an Eagles Flight strap-on. Very light weight and it's not hard to remove while in the stand if you want.

I use a Thunderhorn on one recurve and while it's heavier it feels good on the bow which has a heavier riser.

For strap-on quivers used on narrow longbow limbs I've started slipping a piece of bike inner tube on the limb in the location where the quiver strap will be placed. It seems to make it much more secure.

Lol!! I have 2 of the Big Jim quivers and a Selway. All strap on's and I like them both. I don't think you could go wrong with either.

Briar, both of the quivers you mention are very good quivers. I am prone to the Selway however. I don't generally hunt with a quiver on the bow so I use the Selway that is detachable with what amounts to a big rubber screw on the upper and lower parts of the quiver. I have shot it with the quiver on and it helps keep down the noise but I cannot help but think you may lose a little speed with it on the bow while shooting but probably negligible.

Well... eventually you will find yourself wanting 1 more than you have. You are likely to run into that situation faster with a 3 arrow quiver than a 4 and so on. There has been a situation or two where 3 would have ended my hunt prematurely.
