I have recently bought a Target Recurve Bow but I find a problem in getting a comfortable grip position. I have a wide grip and I wonder if going to a narrower grip would be beneficial?

When buying your grip try placing your hand into the bow with your life line running alongside the grip and when drawing up make sure that you have a good, positive feel.
