    I like to stand around and look cool with my recurve bow in one hand like it's a staff when I'm not actually practicing and this tip protects the lower limb. Seriously though, it's easy to get on and stays put and does it's job.

    saunders protector is clearish gray!?!

    The product was gray not black as pictured. I waited a year to get it. Does NOT FIT my bow! I had to cut it heat it up jam it on and burn it...Read complete review

    The product was gray not black as pictured. I waited a year to get it. Does NOT FIT my bow! I had to cut it heat it up jam it on and burn it together at the tip because no matter what I did to it it wouldn't fit any of my 14 bows and it cut my string when I strung it. Luckily I did find a use for it.... a reason to be angry beyond belief!!!! I read the caption carefully and said its universal basically. It didn't fit any of my 4 manufactured bows from pse, etc or my custom bows or my homemade bows!!!! I was not happy it needed a zero if I could give it was like a cm wide at the tip and they were expecting for it to be universal. It was about 2 inches long and maybe 4 or 5 cm wide at the mouth and 1 cm or less at the tip. DONT BUY!!!!!!!!

          Comments about Saunders Tip Guard Plastic Recurve Tip Protector:

          This is a great product but I had difficulty getting it on. You cant put the string on first then put the protector on. YOu have to start the protector on the tip first. Then stick the loop of the string through the protector opening onto the bow tip. Then you have to carefully push the protector down as you push the loop of the bowstring over the bow tip working everything into place slowly. THe protector will gradually stretch and slide over the bow tip. It does the job well once in place protecting the bottom tip of the bow limb. Almost forget, make sure you slide the bow string over the top limb first, because it is impossible to do so after you put the string on the bottom limb and put the protector on.

            Great product, works well and does a great job protecting the tip when the kids uses my bow around the yard, especially on an older recurve, I recommend this for anyone that has an older bow, and uses it for a training aid for the kids.

            Comments about Saunders Tip Guard Plastic Recurve Tip Protector:

            I have been using this on my recurves for a couple of years now, they can really take a beating. I used to use leather tip protectors, but they aren't as form fitting as these plastic ones are. Also the leather ones didn't seem to last as long as the plastic ones do, not that I'm extremely hard on my bows, but I do teach hunter safety, and the art of archery, so they can sometimes get smacked around. These tip protectors are very durable though, I have not had to replace one yet. Since they are plastic they are water-proof, which is always a plus, and it is very light weight. The only downfall these have is that they are kind of tricky to put on with the string as they are supposed to be, but its only a very small detail it still only takes a minute or two to put on, I'd recommend this to any recurve shooter.

                    Comments about Saunders Tip Guard Plastic Recurve Tip Protector:

                    Since this is described as a "recurve" tip protector, I was afraid it would be too big to fit well on my Savannah. I was pleasantly surprised - it fit snugly, far better than the leather tip protectors I'd been using, and it doesn't absorb water like they do.

                    Also, unlike other rubber tip protectors that seem to have a tendency to fall off, I like that you have to thread the bow string through with this one. It fits tightly even if you don't, but this adds an extra level of security that you're not going to lose it in the woods.

                    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
