For a rubber grip, i'd use rubber... /grins.

You mean something to grip the astroturf down to the actual bow? Double sided sticky tape! and then just cable tie both ends down... that should secure it pretty well...

lol doh! haha u nutter
i meant u know the rubber sheaths on factory made bow perches something of that material to put on the metal bow my friend and then of course cover it with astroturf

dont want the astroturf to keep on sliding, dont wanna glue it on but tie it on

cheers
