I grip the bow and curl the pinky and ring finger to my palm to close the synaptic loop. My ring finger and index tips touch the back of the bow and grip it to some extent. The closing of the bottom two fingers does not allow the hand to close and torque the bow upon release.
I was showing Jr this last night during our FSC range session. He has problems with string slap and it makes him not want to shoot. I had major string slap problems before Rat showed me this technique for my compound bow and I adapted it to my trad bows. Its difficult for me to use this grip technique on certain recurves with a deep grip and are fashioned for a high wrist.
Closing the synaptic loop was a game changer for not torqueing the bow.
Good skilling FnD.
