How is grip on a schafer silvertip different ?

[Bldtrailer]

I own Blacktail , Dale Dye & Bear's paw classic(Neil Jacobson  Montana) Stalker all great bows but I like many here, I  have a bucket list(of dream bows to own/shoot) that includes a Schafer(never shot one). looking at the photos Schafers grips seem to be  different(lower ) How do they compare to the above bows?

I would say it's very similar to a blacktail.

Depends on the grip u order from Schafer.

The standard Schaffer grip is a little smaller in volume than standard grips on other bows I own, although not as narrow as the traditional Widow grip.  I would imagine that if you were having one custom built, Dave could tailor it to your liking.

You would have to hold it to feel the difference.
A picture wont do the trick.
I have had a few Blacktails,Dale
Dyes and Schafers.Schafers  feel different than the other 2.

Grips are a personell thing and I think all 3 of the bows have great grips.

I personally think the Schafer grip is superb and has unique qualities.You gotta get one in your hand.You will feel the difference!Its ergonomics more than just being a medium grip.

Currently have three tips. I highly recommend shooting one if possible. Have owned and shot all the bows you listed, but the tips are my favorite. The grips are very friendly to me and I love the feel of the bow overall.

I have owned a bunch of silvertips both from Paul and Dave.  I believe his checkering is superb and makes a hell of a difference. Recently  I become smart enough to describe to him what I was after and he hit it out of the park.  I am a lefty so I have a little rise on the right side of grip keeps my hand from sliding. Grip  med/low . The other Schafers I have had were wonderful but the newest riser I have is the one.

I can only speak to the Dale Dye and the Schafer.
The Dale Dye has a much larger palm swell. The Schafer is similar to a Widow, although not as narrow.
When I order a bow, I ask if I can get the grip as close to a Schafer as possible.
Everyone has their personal likes and dislikes. For me; the Schafer medium grip does it for me.

Schafers have a narrow throat and more palm swell than most but less than a Dale Dye. The thumb ridge is distinct as well. Like Maxwell, I've learned what I want exactly and ask Dave to make it med/high with a slightly narrower throat.

Like the other good friend above I have/had more than a dozen of Tips, everyone is a little different now I ask for the throat I like and the palm swell that fits me. If you give a bowyer the spects you want he must be able to make them for you. Dave does!
