as far as torque, YES. some shooters learn to live with it, i think it dulls your broadhead everytime you shoot it with the quiver on, i prefer no quiver on my bow. i have used a black widow quiver, thunderhorn boa, quickee quiver, hill style back quiver, great northern strap on, chuck adams style side/hip quiver, st. charles backquiver of my own making and my catquiver. Of all of these if I was going to use a quiver that I would strap to my bow that was easiest on and off the Great Northern. My preference now is my catquiver, it carries all my necessities and protects my arrows, does not weight my bow down. you will hear people question how hard is it to get an arrow back in while it is on your back? well if you are hunting isn't it more important HOW you get an arrow out? with a little summer practice getting an arrow in is no prob. mine is a CQII i believe it has a center comp and two small sides, i would not get one bigger than this unless you pack hunt i.e. long trips from truck, as i do not, i mostly still hunt or treestand hunt.
