Dura glove is great if you don't need a super thick glove. Once I switched to my 52" #55 bow (that I over-draw about 2 inches) my fngers started going numb on the first few shots. So now I use the much less comfortable, but much thicker cordovan tipped finger stalls.

I like the big shot. It felt weird at first but I stuck with it, broke it in a bit and now I love it (should say them as I now have 2 big shots and one full shot).

I have to agree with KADBOW. Big Shot. Feels weird at first but stick with it & break it in well. One of the best gloves I've shot since Bear stopped making theirs years ago.

I don't know about the best glove, but I gotta tell ya elk, treat the leather with Neatsfoot oil. Makes for one slick, soft and durable surface. Best stuff for leather that gets beat up bar-none!

yup so does 3rivers

ive tried a bunch and the one im kinda set on is the barta glove

the doeskin is so soft and on the tips is stiff nylon webbing.
for weeks i hated that glove but now that its seriously broken in its the best ive used
