Torque

(1/4) > >>

DC:
What is torque as it applies to archery? As in, "You're torquing the bow."

Eric Krewson:
Not following through, the top limb jumps right or left after the shot.

Pat B:
I thought it means gripping the bow so you force it in one direction instead of a loose grip allowing the bow to follow the forces when shot.

chamookman:
I'm with Pat  (SH) :OK ! Bob

Pappy:
I agree with Pat, I was told many years ago to finesse a re curve and grip a long bow, I did that for years with my selfbows, but found for me a loose grip works much better, at least for me. I shoot much better with a light medium wrist grip on my bows. I know most don't but I also shoot much better with a locked elbow plus it gave me an extra inch of draw length.  JMO. :)
