So this thread is perfect timing for me. I'm getting ready to call and order the Full Shot.  Anyone have experience with that style full glove?  Feedback?

I will throw another good comment in for American Leathers.  I have a big shot in Elk leather that I have had for over 10 years and there is very little wear on it. Only reason I have a second is if I lose the thing.  They are well made and probably most durable glove I have ever owned.  I was the same and tried Tabs but could not get the feel I wanted with anchor.

I use Barbee nylon tabs for hunting and American Leathers Big Shot and Kangaroo for extended target or 3-D shooting.

I ordered a Kangaroo Krossover glove from American Leathers because of this thread.  :biglaugh:

I spoke with the SUPER kind lady (I wish I could remember her name) and she said she had some super thin kangaroo left over from something else. She sewed up the glove for me with that....I just got notification that it shipped, full report soon.

I guess I am lucky I don't have much trouble with tabs or glove, lately anyway.
I currently have an American Leathers Big Shot, a standard Crossover, and a black Kangaroo (crossover I think). I can shoot them interchangeably. The Kangaroo is probably my favorite.

For hunting I slightly prefer gloves, but I have used Bateman Cordovan tabs, and a Barbee nylon tab. (Death Adder maybe?)The Barbee tab is my favorite tab.

Roger;
You'll be pleased with the glove.  For tabs the Death Adder is tough to beat.

Roger, you wont be disappointed!  I purchased a Buffalo Crossover from one of your Shrew Haven cohorts, Ray off the classifieds, it had the plastic inserts in the finger stalls, it was ok, but just wasn't for me.. Sooo I ended up on the phone with Lisa, ordering a new glove without the plastic inserts, but doubled up with leather per their recommendations.  I've been shooting it for the last 3-4 years with zero issues.

This might be similar to the Big Shot? I bought it a while ago and love it!  It's a bit like new socks though; awesome when new, but still plenty good enough when broke in.
