Title: Shur-Grip bow grip ???
Post by: portugeejn on August 11, 2007, 05:51:00 PM
Any tips on the best way to put this on?  The bow is a Martin Savannah.  Thanks.

I roll mine up the lower limb and up to the bottom of the riser, then un-roll the shur-grip over the handle.

Roll it like a doughnut and thread a small piece of rope through it.  Start it on the limb or riser if a 3-piece, using the rope to help stretch it over tough spots.  when you get in on the handle roll it up where it should go, remove rope and unroll.

Lefty I am going to try that next time.I use a little soap and water and they slide right on.But you have to wait for it to dry.I also make my own.Everytime my son gets a flat tire on his bike I get new handle.Leon

I should also add they're nice to have on a bow. Your hand doesn't slip,they're warm on cool mornings, and they don't smell. Over the years leather grips can tend to get a little funky if you know what I mean.
