Wow!!!! This barebow grip has really made my grip more consistent and comfortable. Simple to use website and offers a lot of bow models. Grip well made and not a cheap material. A major plus from a stock grip.
I’m not a Olympic, target or barebow archer but just a simple hunter wanting to improve my form and bow setup. So almost always having to use a high to medium angle grip I was in the dark when it comes to lower angle grip and I’m happy that I had a option to try something new. Highly recommend this grip.

This is my 2nd Kaminski Bare bow grip, this time in glass. I absolutely love this grip! My wrist stays in the correct position without any slipping. I can feel the pressure point making the bow feel secure while keeping my shoulder down in the correct position. Even my wife commented on how nice it looks on my Hoyt Xceed.
Pablo Aranegui (verified owner) –
Great customer service and well designed and manufactured grip. Thanks for your work!
Roy Agostini (verified owner) –
This is the third grip I’ve tried for my barebow riser. It’s hard when there is not local shop nearby to try them out first…. Anyway, love this grip! The glass grip is a beauty, and I “feel” the diamond pattern in my palm as part of my pre-shot routine. I was concerned about sweaty palm on the glass grip but so far so good!
David Dawson (verified owner) –
As an archer I recommend Rcore grips they’re AWESOME. I believe that a grip is 30% of the bow it fit perfectly on my Gillo and I will buy another one.

Charles Stephens (verified owner) –
Perfect fit. Feels more stable in my hand.
Mike Snyder (verified owner) –
The grip fit perfectly and the color is great. I really like the feel of the glass material. Jake’s design is awesome. My hand fits squarely into the pivot point and rests naturally on the pressure point of my hand. I am able to hold my bow much steadier. The grip pattern and lifeline features work conjunctively to hold my bow vertically without twisting or slipping.
Elliott Thompson (verified owner) –
The grip is well made. Like the life line as it gives me a reference point for my hand placement. The stippling pattern is interesting it also gives me a reference point

Outstanding service – delivery time was three days from order to putting on riser!!! Excellent!!!
Txemari Zurbano (verified owner) –
I am very happy with the purchase. It is a grip that adapts much better to the KSL shot cycle and my hand does not even move during the whole process.
John R. (verified owner) –
2 comments. (1) the grip has a small textured area and for a newer shooter 1 year my feel is not equaled to the smaller patch of raised anti slip area. (2) everything else about the grip deserves a 5 rating.

JAVIER MARTINEZ (verified owner) –
Excelent bow fittment on riser’s side and general finish on archer’s side. Traction is superb, I recommend glass over standard plastic (ordered both myself). My experience is that of a repeating customer, talking of different bow makers and 37 years on the sport. Kudos to Aris!
KAIFEI L. (verified owner) –
Impressive grip, great quality, fit perfectly. Highly recommended, lower wrist is good for stringwalking or beginner to overcome their bow shoulder issue. Also, the glass grip feels very comfortable .

Before having the RCore grip I have had a lot of inconsistency with my bow hand placement and began to lose it after a few hours of shooting. I am glad I bought one as my grip that came with my riser is a tad too high.
The RCore grip gave me the consistency that I needed and my bow hand does not slide up like it used to when my hand get sweaty.
I am looking forward to purchase another grip but slightly lower than the default design. My only wish is RCore can send direct to me in Malaysia instead of my having to have it send to Singapore; I am lucky a good friend was kind enough to receive it and resend the package to me in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Malaysia.
Sven Blomkvist (verified owner) –
Very good!!!👍
stephen vannan (verified owner) –
I can not recommend this product or the service from RCore highly enough. I struggled with a manufacturers grip finding it awkwardly shaped and slippery in my hand. The Kaminski Barebow (In wood) transformed my experience completely. Communication with RCore is exemplary. The product was slightly modified at my request, shipped quickly and arrived well packaged. The grip itself is fantastic, I dont think it will ever be replaced..

Very nice grip! Love it for my CD Archery WF21 riser. Fit to the riser is good and it looks great in glass! I ordered this grip in low (30 deg). Very stable for shooting barebow, absolutely no torque at all. Fit to the hand ist very nice with bigger hands (glove size 9-10).
Dirk G. (verified owner) –
I love it. Fits perfect.
Got two of them for each of my Gillo’s – G1 and GT.

Unique grip angle which provides good contact and support.
Andrew C. (verified owner) –
Bought this for my Decut Basha Pro. Honestly it made a bigger difference than I had expected. The bow not only feels more sturdy and stable when I’m at full draw, but also feel more repeatable due to the life line grove and the grip pattern. 10/10 would recommend.

R core makes the highest quality and most comfortable grips. They are both durable and beautiful. Customer service is responsive and helpful. Have bought two grips so far, will definitely be back for more. I have converted my whole shooting team to r core grips. R core is simply the best!
Steven Burch (verified owner) –
Grip was excellent but for the wrong model riser. A replacement is being made for the correct model. Customer service response was very prompt. One could not ask for better quality or customer service. As for the grip being for the wrong model, mistakes happen to everyone. The response was first class customer service. I will purchase again.
Till Essers (verified owner) –
I got the barebow grip in plastic with the pyramidical anti slip pattern. The grip fit perfect on my Gillo G1 riser, but the pattern was really pointy and sharp and hurt like hell. I was really disappointed and wrote Aris about it. He said to melt it with a heat gun or sand it down. I did both, melt it down carefully, tried, melt again, tried… you get the idea. I used some 400 grid sandpaper in the end to remove the last sharpness and I am happy now.
If I’d known about that I would have ordered it without the anti slip, but after modding it I’m really happy with the grip. It looks good (herring red) and it feels really good now, so 5 stars.

Daniel W. (verified owner) –
Today I received the I AM – Barebow grip for my Spigarelli Revolution, which I tested immediately during today’s training session. I wouldn’t necessarily describe it as comfortable – but that could also be because the Revolution is simply very solidly built – but it sits very well in the hand and almost forces you to grip the bow properly. What’s more, you almost always grip it the same way. Very repeatable. I never had such consistent fits over the entire training session with the original grip. I am thrilled!
