I'm another who prefers a low grip. With the pressure evenly distributed over the thumb muscle the shot is about as consistent as you'll get. It's also easier to hold up the additional mass weight of a fully-loaded compound bow this way. Finally, it allows you to completely relax the bow hand so that all it is doing is supporting the weight of the bow.
