got this new back in the fall, the grip didn't quiet fit me, so over the last few months I've been slowly sanding away at it. Last week I sent it back to Jim to have him stipple and refinish the grip. came out pretty sweet I think.

Very nice. Takes #@()$ to sand on your bow grip. What kind of bow is that?

Good work Larry......the grip is about the most important part of the bow for me. This doesn't mean you're gonna stop "bow shopping" does it?

Tom, it's a Centaur...yeah, lol I hadn't had it more than four days before I started sanding on it. Although I will admit, I only did a little bit at a time over a 3 month period...you know, once you take it off, you can't put it back :)

I really like the way the stipple feels, just rough enough to keep you hand glued to the grip.

Guss, looking foward to the pics!
