Grip.....often over looked!

Working in an archery shop is a great learning experience for the archery world. One thing I've noticed over the past year is the importance of how you grip your bow. There are a few tips that can really help you reduce torque put on your bow. To start with, you don't want to "bury" your hand into the grip. What this means is not putting your whole hand into the grip. Another important thing to do is to keep your fingers loose and relaxed. You don't want to be "gripping" your bow with pressure, this adds torque to the bow and will cause problems with tuning. Just keep your fingers relaxed, dont worry, the bow won't fall out of your hand. These two things can really help with consistency and lead to better arrow flight!
