Tim,

I got a tail from Abe and his instructions are very detailed...  You will not have a problem.

Tim if you figure it out make sure that you share the information.  I just picked up three tails from a trapping buddy that are still froze.  They are in my freezer waiting for instructions on how to proceed.   Thanks for any information.

Hey Red Boar & Rigs,
Any chance of one of you two posting those instructions from Abe on grip wrap?
Sure that they would apply to other hides for wrapping on bow grips as well.

I may be nit-picking but I'd suggest if you do you should probably reword it in your own way/interpatation. Just a precautionary suggestion.

I would be willing  to bet that Abe would not mind the sharing of the top secret knowledge of how to wrap a bow grip.
