RE: Question about gripping a bow?
Yes get yourself a sling! that's why you grip when you shoot, your anticipating the bow to drop out of your hand after you release your arrow, a sling should help with this problem. Don't grip the bow! rest it in the v part of your hand loosely you can curl your fingers so they touch the front of the riser or you can keep your fingers open, which ever you feel more comfortable with.
