anyone have any advice for a good quality 3 under tab?
Dan toelke has some fabulous tabs. They work great and are cheap. Give him a call.
I like Black Widow 3 under cordovan tabs, I got a nice one from Eagles Fight quivers also. Both good quality and long lasting!
EFA MAKES TOP NOTCH 3 UNDER TABS AND THEY ARE A SPONSOR HERE.
Black Widow 3 under calfhair....$12
Eagle 's Flight Archery sells some real nice tabs
E.W. Bateman cordovan leather. These are great. Switched from a glove, and I love them. Check 3 rivers. God bless.
I like the Cavalier. It is made of metal and leather but it is extremely durable and protective of my fingers.
If it is good enough for the 70 meter fellows it is good enough for my tree stand shots.
It is 3 times the cost of a lot of other good ones though.
Can't go wrong with the black widow tabs. I use 3 under calf hair.
Another vote for Eagle Flight Archery's 3 under cordovan. I have had one for about a month and it seems to just be getting even better with use.
I need to order a spare to break in.

I have several of the EFA 3 under cordovan tabs. They are awesome. Its a little different style than what I was used to, but after one shooting session I was sold. I wouldn't use anything else. It is now possible to get one that allows you to change the 0-ring, if you desire a different size. I like the ring fairly snug, so being able to change the ring when I want to use a light weight glove is a great option. I have several of them. Seems I'm prone to setting things down and not being able to find them immediately :dunno: The service provided by EFA is second to none. It's amazing how quickly they get an order on its way.
Like all/most things in archery, a persons choices are an individual thing. There are a lot of good options, Don's tabs work great for me.
Fred Eichler tab. Best I have used.
Toelke by FAR... two for $18
the black widow is nice and reasonably priced. Its kinda on the thicker side if thats a factor for you.
Ultratab... glove/tab combo works pretty nice.
I've tried the Elite tab, Black Widow and the Bateman 3-under. All are very nice tabs, but I'm sticking with the Bateman tab.
The Elite with the metal etc. just felt too big, and shooting 3-under, the split was ok, but not ideal.
The Black Widow 3-under felt a bit too bulky for my taste.
The Bateman tab is simple. Good thickness for my 45# draw weight and works well for the draw, release while allowing good "access" to my anchor point.
I like Bateman tabs. The EFA cordovan tab looks great too. The tab Scott Teaschner makes is my favorite of all, but I don't think he has started making a three under tab yet.

X2 on the EFA tab.
E.W. Bateman is the only way to go for a three under.
I have tried a few but I prefer the ones that I make. I make the tabs from 10-12 once leather and they hold up very well. I punch a hole in them and tie on leather lace so I can put them on my bow so I never lose them. They are so cheap to make every bow has it's own tab.

Get mine from Alaska Bowhunting Supply. Then I cut it to so I have no excess. They stay slick and hold their shape forever. Best piece of leather going.
Chortdraw,
That one looks almost identical to the ones I make.
I use black widow 3 under tab. Not calf hair.
Ben, the tab in the picture has been in use for 3 years and still slick and smooth. May never have to use the new one!!!........Chort
I've used other tabs in the past, however I recently switched to E. W. Bateman and for me they were noticeably better.
