Asbell or Standard Grip
« on: March 02, 2009, 07:47:00 PM »
Which one do you like better and why?  Thinking about ordering a bow, and have this decision to make.  All I've shot is the standard on the one BW I sold and the one I still have, but I have a Navajo II with a grip that has a nice palm swell, and it's very comfortable.

You'll probably like the Asbell grip better.  I do.  But if you're undecided, it's better to order the Asbell grip, because if you don't like it, they can sand it down into the regular grip.  They can't go back the other way.

I took delivery on a new PSAV with a Asbell grip about a month ago.  This is the first new bow I have owned and love the grip.  I like the feel in my hand and helps me keep everything in line.  I am selling my other bows and will order a PTFX with the Asbell.

The Black Widow shop is almost in Arkansas, even if it is the other corner.  Drive on up to Nixa and try them out.  Looks like a long drive, but not bad considering the investment and cost of a Widow.
