Shooter,
For practice why not use different grips? I have done so in the past when I wanted to do a lot of shooting with my Airweight. Buy yourself a set of Pachmayr Decelerator Grips. They are softer than other rubber grips, absorb the recoil well and cover the backstrap to protect your hand. They are also longer than the Boot grips that come on the revolver so you can get a better hold on the revolver. You will be able to do the practice you need to become proficient with your carry gun. Then before you leave the range you can put the boot grips back on the revolver or buy a set of Pachmayr Compac grips or Hogue Monogrips.
I bought a set of Rosewood grips from Badger Custom for my Airweight. They are designed well enough to aid in recoil control. (IMO of course) Not a bad price either...
