I've been thinking a lot lately that Id just love to see a beaver tail grip on a Blackwidow or a Javaman has anybody had Jim do this for them it doesn't have to be those particular bows there just the two I'm thinking about getting done ... If you've had the big guy do a grip for Ya then by all means post some pics !

I have a thunderchild with one on it.  It has some VERY good grip to it, even with wet hands.  I have never shot one and it is taking some getting used to.  I have a callous developing where the bow presses into my hand.

Shoulda done more of the honey do I guess..  :)

Jim can do a wide variety of grips with his Tails, I have seen him install a few onto bows I never thought would work, in the end they turned out great.

Hopefully some pictures will pop up for you but give jim a call. I'm sure you will be pleased.
Relax,

Hes done a couple for me on some longbows.  And some for my friends.  We drop them off at ETAR and pick them up the next day.  They always look great.

I had one on a Shrew Samurai and liked it, but I am starting to really like a checkered grip as well.

Big Jim also sells them to put on yourself with instructions, it's not all that hard.

He put one on for me, a then new Bear T/D. He took what he said were artistic liberties to show off the wood grain. While it does look good, my fingers wrap over the edges of it and I'm not real happy with it.

I dont think there's a better lookin grip out there. I've often wondered how long they would hold up to regular use. Has anyone used one for a solid 8-10 years yet?
