Someone steted, that when your bow kinda jumps toward your target when you release - your hold is ok...so your grip should be quite relaxed...no gripping -> torgue.

Longbows in other hand need to be shot with firm grip...mean those Hill syles with broom stick handles. You kinda master a longbow with authority, so you hold your bow to show who is the boss here    :D

Exactly what McDave said for the recurves and similar grip long bows. I will add that my Howard Hill straight grip, seems to prefer a full contact firm grip. Could just be me.     Ken

Moebow provided some great insight on the topic several years back.  Here is the tread; it has helped me so much I keep it bookmarked.
