Is there anyone else who loves to shoot pinch grip style? I just love the feeling of pulling back a sinew string.

I learned with a Mediterranean pull so it's more comfortable and consistent for me. Too late to change horses in this stream for me.   ;)

Pinch string sucks for me. No control. Three under ,and no thumb on the nock. Their is a theory that when they pushed the bow forward with their bow hand it would pull the arrow from the pinch finger grip. Less bow breakage. Jim Hamm.

I'm with Pat B!  Been doing the three finger for over 70 years, probably couldn't change unless I really. Busted up my hand!
