Checkered Grips?
« on: April 17, 2010, 09:05:00 AM »
Looking to have some of my bows grips chechered, and need contact info for anyone that does this. We have a few gunsmiths in our area, but they send the work out and are pretty pricey. Any help/info is greatly appreciated.
                                GOD Bless,

Dave Windauer at Schafer Silvertip does a very good job..have had 2 done ...won't use any one else. i think Hoots does stippling ...or stipple yourself with the dremel.

Go to checkering.com,Sherry Abrahams does checkering she used to checker for Kimber.You are looking at $125+ for any checkering.Or just type in checkering in the net and there are a lot of places.

Thanks so much guys!! Will check out the leads mentioned. Years ago I had Ric Anderson do his lightning bolt pattern on a Barry Huson bow I had and turned out gorgeous, but believe he was only doing his own after that. Will check with Dave as well, Again, thanks much!!      GOD Bless,

You don't seriously use that bow do you! That is down right awesome work. Never mind I would shoot it all the time just to show it off!

Hey Chad no sneeking up on me like that your not supposed to see that pic.
CK to answer your question no I do not shoot that riser at all mostly because it does not belong to me however if I did own that checked little gem of an A riser you better believe I'd be using it on a daily bases bd

Dave does a great job!  He is doing my Black Widow riser and one of my Bighorns.  Rich Burch at Bighorn is doing one of my Bighorns now.  I am thinking about getting some checkering on my Fatalstyk.
