I relax my fingers, as much as possible with the amount of pressure applied to the hand. My first bow was a Browning Xcellerator. It had a laminated wood riser with a fat grip. Opening my hand was the only consistant way I could come up with. With the Jersey glove, it slides to the center of the web every time. With a sweaty hand, it wouldn' t. It would drag on one side or the other causing the shot to go that direction too.
