    Anyone have any thoughts and opinions on these? Looking to get one to replace my head loc. just don't really like the headloc and rattles when i shoot. Mount feels a little cheap on the headloc and the soft loc's mount looks rigged and simple

    Get a Bohning Chameleon. They are $32.99 on eBay. Check them out!

    Had the 5 arrow Soft Loc on four bows now. Never had a problem. Even fits with the HHA Optimizer I have. I'd recommend them.

    Thanks. Do the soft loc quivers work with mechanicals?

    Soft locs work ok if you take the thick layer of foam out for mechanicals. I had a soft loc and i couldnt get it on and off my bow with cold numb hands. I got a Hoyt E3 6arrow quiver instead and it was a ton better, much easier to get on and off, about the same cost but i liked it much better. I sold both and bought a TightSpot and its hands down the best quiver made IMO, but it costs a pretty penny.

    I would get the soft loc quiver. It is amazing and simple. I also think that it serves as a vibration dampener. Nick_P, the reason it is hard to get it off, is u probably need to work out those muscles of yours. They really are very easy to pull off.

    I have one and love it. When you receive it just take out the thick piece of foam and use the thin one if your shooting mechanicals.

    Did your axis have any problems with gripping tightly?

    How do you like your Axis? Do you use hit inserts or deep six?

    Love them man ! Tough as they come! I use the HITs. I've killed a lot of animals with them.
