Fine!

Pros: Delivery was pretty speedy, product working fine so far - had one on for about three weeks now.

Cons: Only one came in the post initially, but got a second one immediately after a phone-call.

Other: Seems quite expensive for what it is, but probably won't have to replace them for a while.

Interesting solution to a common problem.
2 out of 4 found the following review helpful

Pros: Hhhmm - interesting! The thumbgrip on my bow was too hard and bulky so I took it off and replaced it with this. Although still bulky the grip has plenty of soft give so overall an improvement

Cons: Not sure about its longevity, being soft foam-but you do get 2. Bit of a tussle getting it on but staying put so far. Takes a bit of getting used to.
