Looks like HH used the straight grip.  If you have not seen the HH catalog, highly recommend you order a copy.  It has some very cool historical pictures of Howard and shows great photos of his technique.

Howard shot a straight grip and heeled the bow. Between the American Longbow, R&D and recurve, it is the one that shoots best when heeling the bow. I have shot Hill bows since 1964 and I still believe he knew what worked and what didn't.
