High wrist. I love it. Forces me to grab the riser straight on and the same way every time. It is like this riser was molded to my hand. My new longbow will have a locator grip. I'll miss the recurve grip but I like longbows to have "longbow grips/risers." Just a preference.

This would be a medium wrist grip for a recurve.

This was one of my recurves with a low grip.

And this would be a low wrist recurve.

Oops,

Sorry Two Arrows, you beat me to it.


Anyway, Bulldog56 you should get the idea. Basically, it means the heel of your hand is either high, medium or low on the grip.

It's just a matter of personal preference. I like the low or medium grip. The high wrist just isn't comfortable for me.
