thought about putting a leather grip on my Robertson fatal styk as its a little slick sometimes. i like the ones that wrap all the way around and tied with art. (or real) sinew. i looked on several websites on different kinds, but figured i may make a "custom" one.i've read where you can put barge cement to help hold but do i really need that if i just sinew it together tight enough. i really wouldnt want to put cement on my bow.. does anybody have any pics of theirs or suggestions on how to do it?.. if i get a lighter colored piece of leather,could i stain it? if so, what brand stain. thanks in advance. seth

Here's a Super K I put a leather grip on. Stitched in the front with some waxed hobby thread (looks like sinew). I really like it.

I've got a Morrison Cheyenne riser that in the classifieds that had a simple do-it-yourself leather grip w/beads & feathers when I took the pic, if you want to check it out.
I have some dark brn leather if you need a piece or two for your bow.
