Default RE: Wrist and grip

I shoot with a straight wrist and off the web between my index finger and my thumb with my index and middle finger touching the front of the riser. My pinky and third finger are tucked along side the grip making very little contact. There is probably only about 1 1/2 square inches of contact between my hand and the bow's grip. It's not for everyone, but it's for me I do gain some draw length but putting the pressure higher on the grip as compared to "heeling" the bow makes for an easy bow tuning session for me. I don't have right/ left misses and this helps me rotate my forearm out of the way. I've been shooting this way for about 25 years so it's natural for me.
