    Has anyone heard of Rattler Grips? I randomly got in contact with the owner Rob and he hooked me up with these amazing side plates for my bow. He makes grips from all kinds of materials, including wood, carbon fiber, antler, etc. He can even engrave them or put logos. Amazing work.

    I guess I'm posting this as a thanks to Rob, and I was wondering if anyone else has bought grips from him?

    He makes grips for pretty much every kind of bow. Customer service was amazing too, he was texting me with updates throughout the whole process!

    I looked at his site. It looks pretty awesome. I love my Quest bow but finding custom grips for it is a huge challenge.

    Had never heard of them until now but the website looks great! Really unique patterns and materials. Looks like a great gift idea for my dad's birthday or Christmas. Something I know he doesn't have and won't buy for a change on his own! Thanks!

    Just noticed he offers a discount for active service and veterans too.

    Laminated Wood. I was texting with Rob for quite a while tonight and just explained what I was looking for and he sent me several pictures and I pointed out what I was looking for and he said it was the laminated wood that I chose.

    Wow that sounds really easy. I think I will probably order a set for my dad. He's got a 2015 No Cam so shouldn't be too hard. The hard part will be picking something he will like! Thanks!

    Ya I knew what I wanted it to look like but the actual material didn't matter as much. Excited to get them!

    I'm glad you guys liked this post! Rob was nice enough to give me the set in the picture for free because my fingers were amputated. It's pretty cool how he texts you to make sure everything is perfect.

    Showed me that there are still good people out there with some serious talent. You guys should post pictures if/when you get them!
