Handshock is a fact with all bows, it is just vibration in the grip area. Vibe has been the focus of a lot of work over the last 5 years or so, so it is a much less important than it once was.

Taz, I hear what you are saying. If you have ever shot a bow without a wrist strap and had it fly halfway to the target, then you are probably doing quite a few things right, and you aren't likely to feel much hand shock. But then again if you go back a bit, not everyone used a bow sling. Some of these concepts are from an earlier time, and folks who just jumped the bus in the last 10 years would hardly know what the fuss is about.
