Grippier Grivory tip

[tradewater]

If the stock grivorys are too slick to suit you, try picking up a tube of Bowstring Wax for synthetic fiber bowstrings. It's in a white tube (with black cap) and looks like a fat chapstick. Three bucks at Wally for a lifetime supply. Color it on like a crayon, smooth it out with your finger. Not sticky or tacky. Just "grippier" wet or dry. I also use it on wood and really slick micarta to give it just a touch of traction. Won't harm the finish.

sounds likea good tip. I have some bowstring wax, I'm gonna have to try it on some stuff.

cool. thanks man. Haven't taken the grivory off the 2 and was considering not.

Sounds like a good thing to try. How long does it last?

I honestly don't know. I just started doing it a couple of weeks ago, but so far...it's hanging in there. I noticed the traction it gave the bowstring and decided to try it on some grips. Who knows man? I'm using the el cheapo hard wax, by the way.

same place they'd sell bows, arrows, nocks, and points

I had honestly never thought about bowstring wax, but I do have a travel-size stick of unscented deoderant/antiperspirant solely for that reason.

Bowstring wax works great for knife handles and hatchet/tomahawk handles too. Hell it works for dang near everything even starting fires.


Bladite HAHA nice !! "shop smart, shop *mart"
