Same for me.

I've driven 107 miles to find I forgot my bow, another time I drove 75 miles to find I didn't have my broadheads on my arrows because I practiced with the hunting arrows the day before and forgot to put the broadheads back on, I once cut the bow string when I got in my tree and was putting the arrow on the rest.  

I now have one of everything on me or at lease in my truck.  

its not a tab thing it can happen with anything when we are trying to thing of everything.

Orion X2. One shot with bare fingers works as I have had to do it and connected. Still keep a spare in my pack though. I practice with a tab, not bare fingers.

Nothing like looking down from your tree stand and seeing your shooting glove laying there. Carry two now.

I'll be using a spare tab I have laying around.  I got poison ivy or oak on my shooting glove.  I'll be dog gone if I can't get that oil out of the leather.  I placed an order into 3 Rivers last night...

Give this a try before you toss your glove.

I use the scrub if I think I've been in contact with poison ivy. I use the spray if I didn't catch it in time with the scrub. The original works for taking the oil off gloves, shoes, clothes, etc. I've tried about everything and Tecnu products just plain work! Others aren't even a close second.

I always take several shots per year without the tab. It paid off once when I misplaced it. I took the shot at a nice doe with full confidence and made good.

Yrs ago when I shot with tabs I was using my climber in the late season all bundled up I climbed the tree got my bow pulled up my pack fastened to the tree. Took my choppers,off reached in my pocket for my tab and it was,not there. Looked down on the ground and in the snow was my tab. So instead of sweating up more and climbing down I took my pull up rope at attatched ti to a spare tree step from my pack and managed to get the step into the hole of my tab and pull it up. Meantime I missed two deer walk by. Dummy me I had a spare in my pack but that was my favorite one.

fingers is good if ya lose your tab or if ya glove gets wet. i shoot with fingers or a tab if i forget my tab no big deal  

I did that a few days ago only it was a glove. When I started to get down I discovered the glove stuck on the back of my safety harness by the Velcro on my glove. Lol, felt like a dummy.
