Black Widow longbow w/straight grip?
« on: February 05, 2010, 12:24:00 PM »
Just wanted to see if anyone has a picture of one. I know that the folks at Black Widow can do any grip you like, but wasn't sure if they've done a straight grip. If anyone has one, can you post a picture and do you like it. I only shoot straight grip longbows and I love them.

The grip on their PL longbows is pretty straight in my opinion,I really liked the grip on a PLV I had.And I like a straight grip longbow myself like on my Hill's.

I like Hill bows also, the straight grip on them are hard to beat. With that said I have a new PL on order.
Never have shot one I hope I like it as much as my Hills.....stabow

I had a PLV for a year. I just sold it.  The standard grip IMHO never felt right to me. I shot a LAG previously and should have ordered the bow with that grip. It just felt better to me. My 2 cents.

I have both widow grips.  The old style LAG grip has a more consistent hand placement and therefore shoots much better for me.  It seems like I am always having to make sure my hand is in the exact same spot on their "now standard" strait grip. The LAG style grip puts my hand in the exact same spot each time.  They have a bow demo program.  See if they will send a demo of them both and feel the difference yourself before ordering.
