Grips and Spare Parts

Archery is an outdoor or indoor sport that combines pleasure, technicality and intense training. Mastering this discipline depends above all on a good hold on the bow , more precisely on the grip where the archer's hand will be fixed.

Easily interchangeable, the grips must adapt to the archer's hand to facilitate the hold, which will influence both the power and aiming. This equipment can be made of several materials, such as wood or plastic, and its recommended price is usually around €20.

The grips can be supplied with spare parts for 20lb recurve bows or 15lb recurve bows which allow you to maintain your equipment. In order to provide you with a complete equipment of excellent quality, Hattila offers you a wide range of archery equipment for beginners, adults, children and teenagers.

For archery beginners requiring a complete equipment, we also offer dismountable recurve bow kits or traditional children's bows.

How to hold the bow's grip properly?

A good grip can ensure perfect aiming at the target and total control of the draw weight. To hold your grip properly, follow these instructions:

  • Place the grip laterally on the pad of your hand, also known as the "thumb pad", located between the thumb and index finger.
  • Simply hold the grip with your thumb and forefinger, which stabilizes the bow and allows you to exert the full power of your arm on your hand.
  • In this position, the other fingers should be folded against the grip.

This holding trick prevents the bow and arrows from moving during the shot to ensure precision aiming and concentrated power. Of course, beginner archers may not get the hang of it at first. However, with practice you can get pretty good results.

Mistakes to avoid: Holding the grip with all fingers can lead to inconsistent arrows and reduced draw weight.

Tips for holding the grip

To overcome the difficulty of holding the grip, some archers use a few tricks, such as taping or sticking emery cloth in the middle of the grip. This trick will allow the thumb pad to stick to the grip.

Often used in archery competitions, tape wrapping can also ensure an even grip. Nevertheless, it is better to avoid sweating too much to prevent the hand from slipping.

Finally, a marker pen that will draw a Y between the thumb and forefinger as well as a line on the bottom of the grip can also be useful. This way, the marks will simply match up while holding the riser.
