Squirrelbane · July 22, 2009, 10:14:00 AM

Dura glove is great if you don't need a super thick glove. Once I switched to my 52" #55 bow (that I over-draw about 2 inches) my fngers started going numb on the first few shots. So now I use the much less comfortable, but much thicker cordovan tipped finger stalls.

kadbow · July 22, 2009, 10:23:00 AM

I like the big shot. It felt weird at first but I stuck with it, broke it in a bit and now I love it (should say them as I now have 2 big shots and one full shot).

PAPA BEAR · July 22, 2009, 12:05:00 PM

hahahaha...wet shot...funny stuff right there....i survived the night but my woman now informs me shes a nun... "[dntthnk]"

...sad days ahead for this hunter

caleb7mm · July 22, 2009, 01:19:00 PM

lol!! sad days indeed larry!

looking forward to the hold em, if I can do anything to help you let me know. I am severely unemployed and can make phone calls for you if need be

LAR43 · July 22, 2009, 05:29:00 PM

I have to agree with KADBOW. Big Shot. Feels weird at first but stick with it & break it in well. One of the best gloves I've shot since Bear stopped making theirs years ago.

I don't know about the best glove, but I gotta tell ya elk, treat the leather with Neatsfoot oil. Makes for one slick, soft and durable surface. Best stuff for leather that gets beat up bar-none!
