I have an ACS CX on order but would love to use it for some aerial sniping, thing is all the pics ive seen show longbows with the straight grip.

Is a high wrist grip versatile enough to use for this kind of fast reactive shooting?

Hi Mata, yep, you sure can! I shoot with a very high grip & a straight wrist. No problem shooting aerial. Though I usually use a lighter poundage bow for it.

Good luck!

Excuse for missing? I'd say it's an excuse for a new bow. Hap
