HOW TO PROPERLY GRIP A BOW
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 мар 2022
- Your front hand position holding your bow will either enhance or destroy your archery consistency and accuracy. Getting your grip hand into proper position, and maintaining that proper position shot after shot, will be one of the biggest determining factors to how well you shoot archery. In this School of Nock video, John Dudley of Nock On Archery will teach you what the proper hand position is and how to get your hand into that position consistently every time you grip your bow.

This is the most thorough and in depth explanation to ensure fool-proof results. Dud does it best.
Thanks, Luke! Good luck with your shooting. The Nock On Team is really grateful for your support.
I am such a fan of this guy. What a great teacher. My archery skill has improved immensely this year solely on watching your videos. Thank you John.
My Father in law just gave me his 2016 PSE Supra. This is my first time shooting a bow and I’m enjoying it. Your videos help a ton! Mahalo 🤙🏽
Man this is such fantastic teaching, again thank you for everything you do!
You are welcome. Thank you Clayton!
Great teacher. Calm and consistent. Its one thing to be great at something but its another thing to be great at teaching. I've learnt more from a few of Johns videos than I did from a private lesson at my local shop. Dude was high strung and talked way to much. John gives you a feeling of calm confidence and he doesn't overload you with too much information.
This cleared up so many issues. Thank you very very much!
Nock * On that's some of the best teaching I have seen. Thanks for sharing this information. I am excited to try this out and see if I can get better. Thanks again.
Great information, I'm a beginner and was damaging the fletching. This was exactly what I was doing wrong! Proper grip made a world of difference!
Fantastic explanation. Thanks!
Great information & easily explained video (s). Helped this DIY senior bow hunter so many times the past couple years. Just love these back2basics vids, good refresher too.
Awesome. Glad to hear they help! Thanks for the note.

Brilliant video. I'm a beginner recurve archer and am having issues with my grip according to a coach I go to. This video is perfectly explained 🤝
Thank you so much friend!
I needed this before the Oklahoma Total Archery Challenge yesterday. It was my first tac event ever. It was a dream come true to meet you in person. :) thanks for all you and the nock on nation do for guys like me and so many others.
Awesome to meet you Brandon and thank you for the kind words!
@@nockonarchery it truly was man. I waited 3yrs to go to a tac event close to Joplin and then listened to your podcast and found out you were going and I was like let’s go. Thanks again :)
Outstanding explanation
Great explanation!!
Always great full for your video's learning something new every time. Thankyou for taking the time and sharing...
Thanks Bruce! I really appreciate that. Good shooting!
John, please keep these videos coming.
You got it! I am glad you are finding them helpful!
Another awesome vid!
Your the Man, John! thanks for the Refresher coarse. 👊
Any time, Eddie!
These videos are great
Thank you. I now tune and setup my sons bow and my bow all by myself and have not shot better, thanks to you sir. 💪
great video, thank you sir
This is just great
Very simple and understanding
Wish you were my teacher🙏
This is so helpful!
I was just thinking about this since the new Nockon Ultraview grip just came out. Thanks for the Pro tips to use correctly!
Glad to hear! Whether you use the new grip or not these lessons will always apply. Wishing you the best!
Love the more depth explanation. Feet shoulders over hips arm down grip anchor release success!!!
You bet!
Great video my man. Watching your tutorials has raised my scores at 3D a tremendous amount :) I was trigger punching and making various 'small' mistakes....not anymore :) I've only been shooting compound for a month or so and your videos have been very useful. Thinking about getting a silverback plus or a backstrap release as I am having trouble shooting my wrist release properly with back tension. Would you say 5 inch groups at 60 yards are pretty good??? I don't have much to compare myself to!
So glad to hear! A true back tension release like the Silverback and Back Strap are such powerful tools in archery. It sounds like you have great skills. Keep it up!
Great explanation John!! Back in 1991 in the Ragsdale era I had multiple PSE Mach 6s killer bows for there time!! Immediately took the grips off and gripped just the riser for that torque reason, that’s when they had big fat wood grips!! Funny how the industry migrated to thin grips over the years now!! We new it 30 years ago!! I still have 2 Mach 6 bows in the museum!! Lol. Love your work!!
That is awesome, Scott. You have seen a lot of change through the years and yes, you were on to something critical even way back when! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you sir for this video. It was really helpful for me.
You are very welcome, David!
Grip is SO important and causes many tuning and accuracy issues… great video!
No doubt about it, Jon! Such an overlooked component to shooting archery at the highest level.
Thank you. This info changed how I shoot for the better. Learning made fun by JD.
I have been doing this and it just makes shooting accurate soo much easier.
Thanks again for the great info.
You got it! Thanks for the support!
He’s hands down the best archery instructor in the world!
Thanks for the kind words, Brian. Grateful you are part of the Nock On Nation!
Solid advice JD! Can’t wait to see you at Texas TAC at the end of the month!
Can't wait Rock!
Thank you John! Already fixed my accuracy problem by not using my fingers to anchor down on the grip when firing
Nice Eva! Keep up the good shooting!
Thanks Dud!
You got it, Daniel!
Chalk line helped a lot I was seating the grip directly on it while wondering why my windage needed to be all the way to the left lol.
Nock it on, Nock.it off, Proper, Thorough, super helpful John Dudley at it again! Thank you for continuing to give back to the sport and the archery community!
I love you put comments on the videos…Nock On!!!
That UV3 looks clean!
I’ve always hunted but you have taught me how to shoot my bow so much better 🤘
Glad to hear Braxton! I started as a bowhunter and started shooting target archery to become a better bowhunter. That was and is always the goal to be the most accurate and proficient bowhunter I can be. Good luck and thanks for the support!
Great explanation on a very important aspect of compound bow archery! DRC Bow Mechanics LLC
Thanks, David! I really appreciate it.
Trying to fix my grip and this is perfect
I shoot left=handed and I have a constant problem of my arrows drifting to the right. As soon as I heard you explain how the thumb applies torque I realized I've been messing up BIG TIME. Thanks a lot!!!
Woow Johns running a ultra view scope!!
🤙🏽Excellent video-You could carry this right into something about a wrist strap so that after/during release we don’t try or do try to grip the bow at release
Awesome video. So if your left handed should your obviously holding the bow with your right hand should your thumb position be around 10 o'clock?
Great content and teaching, ive been getting a consistent high tear no matter what i try 3 different rests, lowered nocking point, raied rest, slowing down top cam, checked Fletching contact, bare shaft still high tear, im starting to think my grip is the issue maybe im putting to much pressure at the top of my grip forcing the tip of my arrow down giving me a consistent high tear 🤷♂️
Everything you said, is true for a right hander, if I did that I would have to be standing on my head.thanks for the info.
Hey I like the video its Awsome!Do you think this is what changes my centerered group from 20 yd. to hitting left at 30 yd. ???
Awesome 👍🏻🇨🇦
Thanks for this. I recently noticed two things that are affecting my accuracy
1) I have left & right torque when in full draw. I noticed my pin quivering L & R when letting the pin float. I will try the chalk drill to make sure my front hand position is ok. But I wonder if I'm not pulling my bow straight back but rather at an angle backward and inducing torque that way. I'm not sure if that's another common mistake?
2) My bow likes to "rock back" when I fire, with the top of the bow leaning back at me. This makes me shoot a little high. My accuracy got better when I started using two fingers on my front hand to apply pressure to the front of the riser to keep the bow level. Obviously this is poor technique and not a good solution but it did help illustrate that this was a problem. I have a stubby short stabilizer that has weight distributed evenly throughout. I'm thinking of trying a longer stabilizer with more weight at the end to see if this keeps the bow more level
You can actually see how light that bow is! Crazy. Would love to feel one after shooting a powermax for years.
It really is incredible when you first pick it up. It's unlike anything you have ever felt in a bow. Good luck!
John is my hero...He is literally a superhero!!! John Dudley AKA The Green Arrow IRL
Ha! Thanks for the kind words. Pumped to have you following along.
this is maybe thebest advice i ever hard , well done archery god sir !!! lol
Mann this is dead on to the way i shoot now. The thumb technique ima have to pay attention to on my next out. Just doing it standing here you can feel the muscle pulling. That is torque.
He does a lot job. I could use a couple days of one on one coaching.
Thanks for all your information so I can become a better bow hunter and 3 D I learned a lot 👍
Thanks, Orson! So glad you are using the information to improve. Keep up the good work!
I have a PSE, evolve 28, but there are no screw holes to attach a grip. I’m not sure what the problem is I put my boat in the position. Where are you say, I don’t have a tight grip I don’t really have a grip at all. For some reason I always get a right tear paper tuning.
I'm thinking about replacing the stock grip on my new PSE Drive to with the Nock On Ultraview grip. Will this affect my draw length? Thanks. Great video, by the way!
no it won't
Hey does that work for using a recurve bow
Good stuff Dud!
I consider the grip my launching pad. As with a rocket launch - positioning of that pad is uber critical for the infinite path of the rocket or the rocket itself can be lost for eternity!
>>>--->
In retrospect: If I have an inconsistent grip when shooting my bow (especially long ranges such as TAC) my rocket also can be lost for eternity!!! In the weeds… in the rocks… in a tree… in… well you get my point!😂🤪😢
Nock On Dude!🤘🏽
Great analogy Wayne! Very true. Thanks for sharing.
@Nockon, what's up with that little half-grip thing???
It is a new grip design I worked on for PSE model bows. It's something I worked on for a year refining and working to get the ultimate grip that allows your hand to be in the same spot every time and a design to minimize torque. If you have a PSE bow you should check it out. People are loving it. They are available in the Nock On store. Good luck!
@@nockonarchery thanks, I gotta say that’s pretty slick. I’m not running a pse right now but i basically made something similar on my Mathews with some sugru. Love that design though man.. super innovative
Sir why my arrow goes to left side
You always make awesome videos, but please increase the gain on your audio in post. Almost everyone I know has to double the volume on their TV's or phones when watching your videos.
Thanks for the feedback. Sorry to hear the volume has been low for you and your friends. We will be sure to keep our eyes, and more importantly our ears open to future vids.
@@nockonarchery Please do not take my comment as a negative. The video itself was excellent and informative as all of your videos are. I will be ordering one of the grips tomorrow for my EVL 32.
Thank You Thank You Thank You :0)
You bet Timothy! Thank you for your support! Grateful to have you a part of the Nock On Nation.
