Fleece Tab face?

[DanielB89]

I have adopted a modified version of Dan Tolke's 2 under shooting because I was getting CRAZY finger pinch even on longer bows.  I am wanting to start making my own tabs and I saw he sells a kit.  I am not really interested in his kit, but I did notice where he said he uses a fleece tab face.. I have never heard of that.  

Anyone else use this?  Know why they would use it?

I would think that would cause a problem down the road?? Cloth anything picks stuff up and sticks to it. I would use leather.

I have one that came with one of his bows.  It is evidently designed for 2 under, as it is not as wide as a normal tab.  I tried it a couple of times and wasn't impressed, and so I put it away in a box.  You're welcome to have it if you will PM me with your address.

Love the bow, BTW.

I bought one of his tab kits to try it.  The fleece started wearing off within the first 50-60 shots.  I don't feel that there is proper durability, but on the plus side, it was very quiet.  Sometimes cordovan leather can squeak, the fleece sure won't. I would not buy a fleece tab again myself.  YMMV

Slightly off topic, but dans technique draws a lot of interest, I would be interested in seeing either thru video or pic how you came about adopting dans anchor and two fingers under.

As far as felt, I'd pass. I was not a fan of it. Now a Saunders tab with a felt layer BETWEEN the face and palm material is great

Brian,

I will get a video together for you on the 2 under. It's incredibly comfortable.

Dan saw this thread and sent me a pm telling me to call him. I called him, he sent me some of this fleece AND one of his 2 under tabs for free. This tab is by far the best tab j have ever used. The fleece, after a couple hundred shots, is showing no sign of wear. I do think it will eventually wear out, but he did send me a 8x8" piece of the fleece.

Bottom line, Dan is a good man. I appreciate his generosity. I am more glad that he sent me a tab.

Everything I have ever heard about Dan and his business is parallel to your experience Daniel.

Hope the tab works well for you. Looking forward to your video.
