Quivers
Will other quivers fit the holes in the quiver mount that comes with an Excalibur?
Like will a bohning quick release quiver or tru glo , etc. fit the excal quiver mount?

Tye,
I had the same problem with the old style excal quiver (with only one rubber retainer that holds bolts).
I bought the new style with two rubber retainers and it works great. Bolts never get loose in it. I recommend it.
I saved the old one and I keep my target bolts in it and the other one I use for hunting.

I was squarely in the "no quiver on my bow" category through my compound bow days and when I started with the new Phoenix. I hated the way the quiver through the balance off the bow and didn't like the extra weight. I've used several hip quivers through the years, and while none were perfect, they got me through OK.
I've since tried out groundpounder's quiver mount and I can tell you that I really like it. Not only does it do a fine job of carrying arrows out of my way when walking through the woods with the xbow slung over my shoulder, but it also improves the balance of the bow IMO. I've thought my Phoenix was a little "teetery" previously (side to side) and the quiver adds some needed mass in the center of the bow and allows me to hold the bow more steady. I'm not the only one that has noticed this - my dad and wife both noticed without me saying anything - so I think you will agree if you try it out.
Tye - I like the Excal quiver but I believe I have the new model which holds the arrows very securely. I have used qwikee quivers in the past and they work fine as well - I'm not sure they will fit however and will defer to others who have tried it. That Tru-glo quiver looks interesting too - if you try it, let us know how it works.

Tye . . .I took a old piece of velco from a arm sling I had(broken collar bone) and used it to tie the quiver around my waist. I am using the quiver that came with the Right Stuff package. I keep the quiver on my lower back(behind me) with the vanes upright. As I'm walking, it's rarely in the way, the bolts have never come loose and it's relatively easy to reach back and pull out another bolt. Kind of tricky to put a bolt back in after recovery. Give it a try using a old belt . . .I like the velco because I can easily/quickly take it off/on when sitting or field dressing!
I'd rather wear out than rust out.
