new glove suggestions

I'm shopping around for a new glove and was looking at the "big-shot-elk" by American Leathers. Is it worth the money or is there something better for less?

That's about as good as you can get, although I'm not sold on the elk hide. I like the regular one better but that's up to you. The only thing I don't like is the Velcro strap. I'd rather have a snap. I'd buy it.

I love mine... It works great on my 50# and up bows, but with my 42#er it is hard for me to get a good enough feel for a constant release...

What's the regular? The buffalo one?

This glove is wonderful! Easy on the fingers for bows 55# and up. Lasts forever...

I shoot tabs that I cut myself after a pattern that the fella that got me started in trad used to use. I tried the glove but never did take to it.
