I have changed my grip on my bow lately. I hold my bow loose but bring my finger tips back to rest on the front of the grip. when I shoot I find my bow vibrates a fair bit. would a different stabilizer ? maybe a string "catch" cut this down ?
Thanks

I'm sure you've checked that everything is snugged down nice and tight. You may find that a good backstop will cut that down. Other than that, many bows have a number of rubber "dampers" on the limbs etc... that I think are supposed to help with this. Maybe you could order some for your bow if it doesn't already have some?

my bow has limb savers on the riser but no string leaches or string damper or stop not sure proper name. maybe its just me being too fussy or wanting a new bow bad LOL could my grip magnify the vibration ?
thanks

Hey Justin, I wouldn't recomend using a string damper or stop, if the bow is a twin cam. Ok for a single cam. If your bow has twin cams, it will through your timing out. Good rubber stabilizer, like the S-Coil and string leeches should make a difference.

You mentioned that you changed the way you hold your grip with your finger tips. I do the same thing and found that my bow has some slight vibrations in it. My doughter mentioned the same thing and she shoots a very smooth target bow. I use a string stop on all my Bowtechs that are double cams and have never had them come out of time. I have heard many people say that they have had problems with the timming after they put them on. I dont have mine touching the string. It is about 1/16 of an inch from the sting. So when the shot is made it has already used up the kinectic energy and has very little stress on the string when it hits the string stop. This worked for me and may not work for others, but its worth a try.
Your bow is a single cam bow.
