Is this done the same as other leather? Some have suggested to wet it first?? Thanks.  BILL

bill....I have used suede three or four different
times on my bows...I did wet and streched to fit
first before glueing and lacing.  The only bad thing about suede or any roughout leather is they
soak-up water quickly! allen
