Thinnest gloves I can use....currently use Damascus gloves.
Im tryin out the tab at this time.
Used to use a glove, switched to a tab and won't go back to the glove.
Big Shot glove for me.
I've found that I shoot the best with no tab or glove.
Got used to a glove and a tab or barefingers just feels strange to me....Shawn
i shoot a black widow tab, never felt comfortable with a glove
Tab ftw.
tab
used a glove for ever but just recieved my black widdow leather tab a few days ago and i shoot alot better with it. so im sticking to tabs know
love my bw tab. I'm not sure about you bare finger types like mystic. I'm good for one or two shots and then I cry like a girl. Makes practicing barefinger a bit tough with all my buddies laughing at me.
Black Widow tab for me. They last forever.
I like my glove for my longbow and a tab for my recurve, it's personal preference
I keep trying tabs but prefer a cordovan glove.
A Bateman split finger cordovan tab for me. Gives me a cleaner release than a glove.
I shot with a glove for years,then tried a tab and never looked back.I get a cleaner release and it's easy to flip out of the way when I need to.
Started with a glove, but didn't really like it.
I switched to a tab about 15 years ago, and have been using one ever since.
The last 6-7 years, I've been using a homemade tab. I took a SAM tab apart for a pattern, and made a couple out of Cordovan.
If they ever wear out, I'll make another, no glove for me.
Tried a bw tab, actually got a cleaner release, but I hit my nose and smack my lip when I release...probably just me!
Big shot glove, best I have found
Started out in 1971 with a glove and just never changed, just like I am still using a Astro II I got in the 70's, saw no need to change. But just bought a new bow so maybe will give a tab a chance. :bigsmyl:
Tab for me. Used a cordovan single layer for years but have switched to a Fred Eichler (3R) tab and really like it better. Smooth release, good protection, and can feel the string good.
I have and do use both, but prefer the tab, I feel a cleaner release.
I just voted and it is exactly 50-50. I guess it is really all just personal preference.

tab now, but shot a glove for 15 years..
I tried a glove back in the 50's and went with tab in the 60's. Made my own for a long time, but am going to try a Fred Eichler and see how I like it.

Me too...though I nearly always hunt bare fingered, I sometimes use a tab , very occasionally a glove .
Gloves for me... I've tried tabs but I just feel better with a glove (I shoot split fingers).
Always used a glove, Big Shot and Damascus in use now, but just got the new 3R catalog and like the look of the Fred Eichler tab. One on order soon for a try out.
Basically tab for targets, but glove for hunting.
In general I want cordovan on both my tabs and the finger tips of my glove.
I shoot pretty much two under and I make my tabs by turning over an opposite hand Cavalier Elite and modifying it.

Whichever you prefer, make sure you have a spare...............right Bisch?javascript:void(0)

:p
tab... I can make 1 in about 2 minutes
Start with a glove switched to a homemade Cordovan single layer tab.
It is totally personal choice here. I shot a glove for a long time. For a reason that is not really applicable I switched to a tab. Cant seem to go back now and I have tried a few times.
Used to use a tab. Now I use a glove and prefer it over a tab.
Wow. I would've bet a lot of money that gloves would be at least 80%. I'm very surprised.
I jsut viewed the poll after voting, its 67/67. Tied right down the middle....
Black Widow palm tab. Been using them for years. As a matter of fact, I have never seen anyone else use one. Weird, uh?
I've tried both, but have pretty much stayed with a glove. I just received a new Black Widow Stick-Tite glove last week. I have only shot it a few sessions, but I really like the long finger stalls and the design.
I use a basic Bateman tab, has worked for me for years but I may give a Black Widow a try soon.
big shot glove here
Tab for me. I started out shooting a glove but after I discovered the Saunders Fab Tab I've never looked back. Much slicker and cleaner release with a tab for me.
Tab
I've tryed both! I ended up going with the american leathers glove. Been shooting it a couple years and wouldn't have anything else. Jason
Bateman cordovan tab.
Tab, cut at home from 2 mm leather, I couldn't cope bare fingers anymore
Alaskan bowhunter cordovan super tab for me.
No glove, No tab, Bare fingers here.
very thin glove here!!
Tabs for me.
Black Widow Split Finger Leather Tab for me. I always carry a well used spare with me when I am in the field. They are tough and durable.
