An archery bow assembly including a central handle section that is positioned and configured to provide a natural position for the archer's hand and to minimize chafing of the bow string against the inner surface of the forearm of the archer upon release of the bow string. The handle section includes a generally planar main body portion connected at its upper end to the lower end of the upper limb section and connected at its lower end to the upper end to the lower end of the upper limb section and a handle portion formed integrally with the main body portion and laterally offset with respect to the main body portion and with respect to the central plane of the bow assembly. The handle portion defines an oblique grasping surface that extends downwardly away from the central plane and the grasping surface is sculptured to define individual concave surface areas for respective receipt of each finger of the archer's hand so that each successive finger, counting away from the thumb, is positioned successively further away from the central plane of the bow so as to rotate the forearm of the archer to a natural, comfortable position and a position in which the archer's forearm is essentially removed from the path of movement of the bow string.
