The primary indicator of poor grip would be the bow leaving the bowhand at an angle, or twisting on release.
This is what happens to my bow half the time.I'm pretty well convinced now that the grip on my nexus is my problem.

I simply want to square the grip up(i.e take the curves off)Can anyone advise me on what tools to use to perhaps reshape my grip.If it was a wooden grip i could set about it with a plane and some chisels and some sandpaper (as i've done before).I dont think i would get a good finish with the above tools because the stock nexus grip is plastic.I know it would be easier to buy a wooden grip and customise it,but moneys a bit tight at the moment.
