A medium wrist grip with a palm swell.

Thank you

I think it's the palm swell I like so much. Don't want to grip it, just reassuring feeling it's there...

You're welcome

I agree..I like it too...just have to be careful 'cos it's easy to torque a bow that has that style.

BTW..the older "classic" Mathews grip is closer to a high wrist style..I assumed you were talking about the grip on the OB.

Frankly, I don't know which I was talking about...

It's been a long time since I held the old Mathews grip, but going from memory, the new one on the OB didn't feel THAT much different, so I figured I was safe just lumping them all in together.

I agree on the torque potential, but for some reason, this style of grip makes me more tension free and relaxed. The thin grip on my Diamond makes me concentrate not to grip, as I can't fight the feeling that the bows gonna fly away after the release, even though I've proven to myself there's no way this is gonna happen. I'm sure it's that reassuring feeling the minimal contact of the palm swell provides, kinda like having a finger barely on a wall while balancing on one foot, just seems so much easier to do...

For the record, I haven't had a really good palm swell since I was a bachelor...

If you want an accurate and forgiving grip......get a Shrewd Precision Grip!

Does it have a palm swell? My hornet has a very narrow grip throat, but I miss the palm swell...

I agree with Stealthman. The schrewd grip is on all of my mathews. No it doesn't have the palm swell that you are talking about. But it does help alot with torque problems. You can get them in 3 different grip styles.
