Torque less grips, side plates or wrap???

[TXFireFighter]

Wanting to get a new set but how do you know which would be best? Going on a Destroyer 340. Hate the factory grips, have a little torque occasionally but mostly really uncomfortable. Thanks for any input.

Spent an hour going through old threads but most just commented on how great they are and not on why they have either style. Thanks

Is that grip slick or a little sticky and softer rubber? IMO I will never wrap a grip. It will create more torque problems than you have now. And with side plates you will be shooting off the riser, and you will actually gain some draw length. Looks like about 1/4 inch at least. So that might affect your anchor point.

A nice solid, slick grip is best for me, especially when wearing gloves. It helps the bow settle to the correct location in your hand, and keeps the grip torque away. Torqueless grips are just normal grips with rounded edges to keep the grip from diggin into your hand.

Have you tried removing your grip and shooting it that way? That would be like having side plates.

Side plates on the BowTech. IMO

I shoot sideplates. It would be the exact same as the invasion grip which was great for me.

I took my factory grip off and am going to try shooting off the riser. I already like the feel of just the riser. What is the reason people go with full grips? Thanks for yalls input.

Because they prefer the feel of a full grip. I prefer a thin grip so I prefer sideplates to full wood grips....but torqueless does a good job keping the full grips thin.

They can also adjust wrist angle with the way they sculpt the wood....either low, mid or high wrist grips. Can't do that with sideplates.

I was in the same situation as you with my Outlaw. What I ended up doing was going to Lowes and buying some 1/4" thick oak. I wasn't sure if I wanted a full grip or side plates but knew I didn't like the feel of the riser. I decided to build my own plates to gauge what I thought before ordering. It wasn't hard and I like them so much I'm just going to keep what I did and save the cash. Just an idea if you're remotely handy. I don't know how to post pictures but I think it looks good.

The last Bowtech I owned I went to Scott Whiteford at Johnsons custom grips and had him make me some sideplates with a thumb index that wouldnt let me hold it wrong. Before that I had alot of torque issues...
