It aint that i dont like it, its just that it hurts. I cant stand shooitng as much as u did befor this bow. But ill give it more time and ca nd if i still dont like it im goin to have to find a new grip.
Did you shoot that bow before you bought it. If you did then you should have realized how it felt. And you should have shot many other bows also. That's why you always read suggestions such as "shoot as many as you can".

You could always check with Bear. They may even have replacement grips for your bow. Just not advertised all the time. Or, as suggested above, look for an aftermarket grip.

I hate to suggest this because I don't like them but Simms makes a wrap made of rubber. You can find it almost any place that sells Simm's products. Or try the wrap used on tennis rackets.

I did shot it, and i also shot alot of other bows. I love the way the bow shots just not the grip. I mean this bow is so quiet it aint even funny.

Do a search on GRIP or SHOOTING FORM. Your hand should not hurt from gripping the bow because you should not grip a bow at all. Gripping is reserved for longbows.
Not really. Longbows may jump a little more but there is no need to grip that handle snug.
