Try Big Jim I know his bows have beaver tail grips. Look him up under the sponsors and give him a call.

Abe Penner at Caro-bou Archery carries the tanned tails. I've ordered from him on two occasions and have been very pleased. Tails are $25.00 a piece plus about $4.00 shipping to Texas. Has them in black and brown and they come with complete installation instructions. I have them on two of my bows and find them durable. They look good to boot. Good luck.  :thumbsup:

Keeping in mind we are talking about beaver tails here, how many grips could one expect to get from a tail? Is it a beaver tail or a piece of beaver tail sized for one grip? Thanks.

Go to cari-bow.com ....There are pics there of what you get. I have a beaver tail grip, rest, and strike plate and can assure you that you'll be happy. It's the most durable material I've used as well as functioning well in all weather conditions.
