Title: Source for Brown Self-Adhesive Grip Wrap?
Post by: Yankee Bill on September 17, 2014, 02:27:00 PM
I've been looking for a source for Coffee/Mocha'ish Brown colored self-adhesive Grip wraps, similar to Tennis Grip wraps, for one of my recurves to no avail. Can't seem to find that color. I'm finding every other color imaginable for some reason.

Does anyone know where I can find one? Not really wanting a slip-on, or stitch on type.

Appreciate any input you might have.

Thanks,

YB

You can find a piece of leather to you're color liking and just use barge cement if you don't want it stitched.

I don't have one,but I think this is what you are talking about. I would try one of these or the slip on rubber.

Might take a look at hockey tape... it comes in a multitude of colors...

Try the "bay" - type in Brown Hockey Tape...

Thanks guys, but I'm really trying to find something of similar texture as a Tennis Racket grip wrap that is self-adhesive. It would look something like this  http://www.3riversarchery.com/bow+grip+skin_i5604_baseitem.html,  but in brown and self-adhesive.

Thanks,

Look for baseball bat grip tape. Basically the same idea as tennis archer, but for aluminum bats.

Also look at road bike handlebar tape. You should be able to find that in any color imagineable

Same answer as on the other site...I think what you are looking for is actually a wooden baseball bat wrap
