Default Gripping too loosely?

I have asked some questions involving bow grip here before but I am still debating on whats best. I used to shoot with my fingers just lightly resting on the riser, then I started really getting into shooting and started reading about different grips. I started loosening up my grip so just my thumb and index finger were touching. Then one day I shot and my bow jumped out of my hands! I realized that I loosen my fingers after the shot because i'm afraid if I keep them tight I'll torque my bow. I don't want a wrist sling so please don't suggest that. For those of you who shoot like this how do your fingers end up after the shot? Also I used to shoot fine with them lightly resting on the riser should I go back to this or will it always pose a potential torqueing risk if I ever want to get really good at shooting. Thanks for the help-Sam
