Abstract
The grip for an archery bow is attached to the handle of the bow and can translate (move from side to side) and tilt. The grip is attached to the handle by two screws engaging threaded inserts screwed into the handle. The position of the threaded inserts in the handle determines the side to side position of the grip. The screws pass through elongated slots in one side of the grip, with the slots elongated in different directions, thus enabling one to adjust the tilt of the grip relative to the handle. The threaded inserts are preferably held in position by locking inserts engaging the threaded inserts within the handle.
