Who sells Seal skin rest with adhesive backing?  Thanks for any help.  Ken

Alaskan Bowhuntig supply sells Seal skin, don't know if it is adhesive backed but just slap some contact cement on and you're good to go.

Be careful it may drive your bow tuning haywire. I've had to give up on them myself.

I have seal skin on all my bows, and shoot of the shelf with no problem whatsoever. I used Barge cement to apply it.

Good luck getting it. I checked 3 Rivers , Kustom King and Alaskan Supply..........Not listed on their sites. Rumor has it ,the eskimo that was running the operation up there got into some trouble.

I use some seal skin and just use alittle barge cement to glue it on.It does not have adhesive on it,have never seen any seal skin with adhesive already on it.

I have some on one of my bows.  Works great.  You can just slide the arrow on the rest and feel the lack of friction. Good speed. Good stuff.

I really like sealskin rests. I recently bought up six, from three different suppliers. They seem to be getting hard to get. Three Rivers no longer gets them. I wonder if the animal protection people are behind the drying up of the supply. I use Barge Cement to instl.

Seal skin is probly going out of supply, since the seals are so cute, and everyone wants to ban hunting on them.
Its hard to get by even here, and we still have a hunting season on them.

Anybody know where to get some? I really like the stuff.......Used it for years. I always thought it was pricey, but it was worth it to me.Seem to last along time for me.

In a pinch, Cabelas sells the seal skin tabs. Same stuff but alot more expensive. I'm running low myself. Might have to switch back to velcro.

JT,
Got an old sealskin coat at a yard sale last summer.  Am going to cut it up, just haven't got around to it yet.  I cut the piece and then apply double sided carpet tape to the skin then the bow.  Works great.  Email me  Duckbill@alaska.com

ABS simply said it's "no longer available". I know a native Alaskan had to be the only one to gather and process...and it's now not "available."

Bummer... loved that stuff!
