Default Trouble Gripping The Bow.....?

During hot weather ?...sweaty palms tend to torque the bow and stick to grip so proper hand placement is hard to achieve?

Have trouble with bow grip fitting into meaty part of thumb/palm?
Have trouble with follow thru as grip wont slide proper?
find that even with a relaxed grip you tend to torque bow?

A simple fix...Primos Stretch-Fit Gloves

they are lightweight and like silk...lets grip slide proper and into proper grip...eliminates torque and makes follow thru so smooth...

Its because the silk like material lets all grip makes slide easily in hand,
We use these with shooters that have any of the issues above, some of our shooters use these gloves all year long every time they shoot...

They are also breathable, mosquitoe proof, cool and camo...were designed as an early season lightweight camo glove but we use them for improving form and shooting...


Most PRO shops carry them....and they are cheap!!!!!

I prefer the Under Armour ones. Same idea.

They fit my hands better, but are not cheap.

Default Gloves

In the early season I wear a pair made by Whitewater. Not skeeter proof by any means but that's what the Thermacell is for. They are ridiculously thing and have a near silky feel as Neil describes. If memory serves they were super cheap too. Wish I would have purchased more than one pair as I haven't found them since.
