Better grip on riser

[jonsimoneau]

Pay carefull attention to your shooting after applying a new grip. For me if I use leather or rubber it causes harm to my shooting in the form of torque.

You beat me to it. I tend to torque a bow more if it's "sticky". I have to make sure I keep a loose grip and don't seem to have that problem with smooth wood.

I wrap my bows with rawhide lace to get a good grip when its hot or cold......never had a problem with bow torque and I grip a bow very firmly....... and if you dont like it or sell the bow it comes right off......

I'd go with something temporary at first. I find that if I get too good a grip on the bow I torque it more and don't shoot as well. Might want to make whatever you do reversible at first. Also might lose some resale value with stippling if that's important to you.

Try some vet wrap easy on easy off if you don't like it and cheap. Pine tar works very well as well.

Thats a nice riser.I would personally try a finger sling for a while.Some times you have to let the riser slide into place in order to get out of the bow what was intended.The sling would add a little insurance and you can show off that bow.After a few days of shooting you wont even need the sling.

A totally slick grip is the most forgiving and accurate way to shoot. I would stick on something temporary and not stipple the grip so its reversable once you find out.

I grip my palmer recurve firmly when I shoot. I tried the bow saddle but didn't like it since it made the handle bigger and I thought it was to big as it was. I went with the checkering and I love it. I also love the look of checkering too.

Rubber grip from 3 rivers are really good!

Add a leather wrap to your grip, I have found deer leather is very thin and does not change the grip geometry that you have become accustomed to.  I use Elmers Stix All adhesive.

A very cheap and non damaging method to try a different feel is to wrap the grip with medical wrap (ace bandage). It has a "sticky" feel, that is thin or thick as you wish. Unless you can find in black, the tan color is pretty ugly, but, it sure does work. You can find it at any drugstore.

I go with either a beaver tail grip, or some elk hide.

I have the bow saddle on some of my bows. I like the idea HvyHtr posted with the leather lace, I;m going to try that on my Predator. Looks very Trad.

Skateboard grip tape, it's self adhesive, just cut a small piece and stick where you want. $10 sheet will probably do 50 bows for me, and peels of if you want to shift it. Gives you a similar feel to checkering or stipling

You might want to google this and see if you  want to try it.. Glock Grip Tape - Not gritty like sandpaper or skateboard tape.
