That's always an issue when making a knife, how the blade is intended to be used and matching the design and handle materials to the use. Without a pic it's hard to give any input. When I'm building a handle for a rough use knife it is fit to the hand to give proper indexing and sit right. That is the first step, if the handle shape is awkward (and stag is sometimes that way) finding a proper grip can be difficult without adding some shape.
It may be a good idea to go ahead and replace that handle with a more appropriate material. Again, without a pic it's hard to offer input.
