Tom, I was sceptical too of a rubber grip when I first thought of putting one on. Was a pain in the arse to get on, but really like the feel now and don't really notice much extra girth. They fit better than a glove:)

I used a lot of inner tubes for grip covers, but they didn't last very long. Once I changed to Shurgrips they last forever. They fit good and tight and I've not had any trouble with black coming off on my hands as mentioned above. Like Ryan said above just roll them up like a donut and roll them in place. It will make your hand sore if you do two or three in a row.

Put one on my savannah and it was not too bad once you get it to roll up into the donut. Made a big difference in the feel of the grip. Feels much better to me now.

I used some tennis racket grip tape on my longbow. It makes the grip a lot thiker but I like how it feels and it takes some of the hand shock off also. The larger grip for me helps with not griping the bow as much and I seem to be able to get more consistant hand placement.

Only takes a couple minutes to put them on but as mentioned above you have to roll them on and into place. I really like them on my hunting bows cause they have a little bit of "Tack" to them and work well under a soft glove.

Shur Grips or Posi Grips bowth work but can be a real buggar to get on a riser with a lot of "relief". Med wrist will just take some work to get it over the bumps.
I used Posi Grip on a Damon Howatt. It had a masssive grip with lots of curves. It was a struggle to get it on that giant riser. But, once I got it on, it was great.

I just put one on my bow, really like the way it feels with the dimples. putting it on was a different story a pain in the butt. But it fits like a glove and doesnt move.

I had a sure grip on a longbow many years ago. It worked great and provided a nice slip proof grip.
However, when I removed it a year latter it created a nasty discoloration in the riser.
