Title: Need tab advise
Post by: Michael Arnette on August 31, 2015, 06:49:00 PM
Well, they don't make stuff like they used to! I recently went to pick up an extra tab and have found that they have made the leather significantly thinner.

What would you recommend for the 3under shooter for a tab? I've always used a standard split tab but an open to options.

I love the Bateman 3 under that I modified to a 2 under.The third finger was just dragging me down.It helped my string release quite alot!

I like Fred Eichler tab I just bough a second as back up nice and thick arrows leave very smoothly

Everyone is high on the Bateman, and I agree.  However, my favorite three under tab is the Rod Jenkins from safari tuff.  Just another option.

People seem to like the Toelke's tabs, haven't tried one myself though. I use a death adder tab but don't think you can get them anymore.

What about making your own? It's VERY simple to do! Go to shoe shop and get the leather then find a template proceed to out cut new tab, BAM! New tab

Hi Michael. I shoot three under and use a Spigarelli. Got the X large size and then cut it down for personal preference. A little pricey but quality leather. Good string feel. Now you must be really confused.

I like a Saunders Monotab. They make a three under. Just a simple plastic tab. Lasts until you lose it.

This is what I do. Super easy. Made to fit. And I use 2 leathers. Of my liking.
I make a few at a time (I lose everything) cost me under a Dollar to make.

Yep. I picked up a couple Bateman before I ran into Rod at a show. No comparison; his tab is made to last many lifetimes. I've got half a dozen now; not because I fear they will ever wear out but just in case I lose one!
