Grip wraps

<font size=5></font id=size5>You guys are SSSOOO fast to respond to a post that I have to take advantage of it, so here goes;
Grip wraps, like the ones put out by Simms, are a good thing, or maybe not ??.I have heard that any thing like that on the grip can set you up to &quot;pre-load&quot; grip tork(could not remember how the hell that word is spelled).True or False, as far as you believe

I've used Sims insulator wrap since they came out.
I currently use it on both my Q2 and FX and love
the feel it gives. I get great groups with both
bows and would be lost without it. That being said,
I have never come across another hunter/shooter at
my bowshop(or anywhere else) that also uses one. I've
talked to others and noone else seems to like the
feel. Originally,I tried it out during the summer
when my hands were sweating and I felt like my
grip might slip in my bow hand...ended up using
it year around.<img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>

If ANYTHING, I'll use a string of mole skin just on the back of the riser (ala Hoyt). I like a very narrow grip.

Like Stealth Force, I would much rather have a thin grip that would find its own centerline against the meat of my thumb when drawing the bow. I also use moleskin or a lubricated rubber pad against the back of the riser grip to facilitate a repetative grip that will not promote grip torque.

On my Maverick I removed the rubber grips and replaced them with custom wooden grips that we have made and sell in the shop. As much as I like the feel of the rubber, I don't want it to keep the bow from finding that centerline against the meat of my thumb. The wood keeps the chill down in cold weather and also looks great.

If I were to use any sort of grip wrap, I would have to lubricate it so that it would 'slide'.

I think I have to agree that the less on the grip the better. I've been shooting for 30 years now and in the summer I actually use baby oil on my bow hand to HELP the grip slide into my hand where it wants to settle. This assures that I didn't get any torque due to the grip pinching the skin or anything else. For hunting I just use a walnot grip withsometimes a fleece glove when the temperature drops.
