Interesting. Good to know that about Black Widows - it's not something I've experienced with most of my bows. I'm shooting a Bear Tamerlane because I can't yet afford a replica Mongolian horsebow. (It's going to be my present to myself when I reach Grand Master Bowman, but I'm not there yet, and I'm still saving for it.) My fistmele is about three inches up my forearm from my wrist, but it doesn't tap there when I shoot - possibly to do with the grip of the bow, which has suited me the best of any bow I've ever shot. If my Tamerlane ever dies, I'm going to be very, very sad.
I'd been considering getting a Black Widow. Now I will have to make sure to try one out before I buy, just to make sure the grip suits me. Thanks for the heads up!
