Title: Beaver Tail Grip on my LX
Post by: deertraks on April 17, 2009, 08:31:00 AM
I saw a thread on putting a beaver tail pad on the grip of a bow. My hand wanted to slide a little on my Lx, so I thought I would give it a try. I didn't want to take away from the beauty of the bow, so I opted for the pad and I'm pleased with the results and it wasn't hard to do. It gives me a positve placement for my hand and stays there.

The color matches your bow perfectly.

That is impressive! (And a great looking LX)
Did you dye the tail to get that color match that well, or did you find it that way?

I did the same on my Bear Supreme TD, although it doesn't color match as perfectly as yours does. Your bow looks awesome!!    :notworthy:  

I really do like the way it locks my hand in place and keeps it there. The added thickness actually made my grip fit my hand better as well, and I cut mine to act as a palm swell.

There's nothing like grabbing a piece of TAIL!!!    :D

Great idea. I have a black beavertail that I'm planning on putting on a Howard Hill. Think it will make a great stitched wrap.   :thumbsup:
