Hey man. I accually was going to go test out my sonics this last weekend. What happened was I decided to get a 9 Waroo and try to settle for a 2 kite quiver. Then when the Waroo was late on the shipment (got it today finally) Im now going back to the 14/11 GK quiver. Now I have to wait another week or whatever to get the 11 and send back the 9 Waroo.
