Suregrip

#1 Post by matt61 » Mon Aug 31, 2015 11:56 am

I have a Black Widow PCHX and was thinking of putting a rubber Suregrip on it.
And would like to know if anyone has one on their Black Widow and how hard
was it to get on. :?:

Has anyone got a Suregrip on their recurve bow, It does not have to be a Black Widow.
Just want to know how it fitted on their bow. If it was hard or easy to get on and fitted neatly.
thanks
Matt

Hi matt, they go on pretty easily being like a heavy inner tube they are pretty flexible. I personally dont like a bow handle that is so grippy if you know what I mean.

Hey Matt. I use them. Relatively easy to put them on. I roll them up slide them into position,then unroll them. You can sprinkle baby powder which will help.don't put any grease or oil on the rubber as it will then slide up and down when shooting( not a good thing). An alternative is to cut up a bicycle rubber inner tube. That way you will get about 6 for $10 out of 1 tube. I just replaced my bicycle tube after 2 years. lol. I like using rubber grip coz when its hot and you perspire the bow doesn't slip in your hand. I also carry some resin in my pockets(same stuff they use on Terry towelling for tennis and squash racquets[

Thank Fellas , push bike tube sound like a cheap way to experiment to see if I will like it.
Three Rivers sell one with little bumps all over it for extra grip for $14.
