S.A.M. (Super Archery Mitt) for me. Love the way that I can adjust the tension on it with the wrist thong and keep it in a consistent position on my hand. (Harder to lose too!) No flopping like a regular tab, as the 2 finger loops make it fit more like a glove. It gives me a smoother release than any glove I've ever shot. Since I first tried one MANY years ago, I've never shot anything else.

I personally like the Neet tabs made from calfskin with the soft felt finger spacer.
Most people get rich by making more money than they have needs, me, I just reduced my needs!

Saunders Pak-tab.  Lasts forever, never stretches curls, or changes shape, unaffected by temperature or moisture, and shoots very well.

I also like the Bateman cordovan tab.

I prefer the Saunders plastic tab also. You can spin it around on your hand and have it out of  the way, then flip it back and shoot.
Lasts until you lose it(or until my dog chews it up!).

That gets my vote as well!  Great tab!

Super Archery Mitt or Saunders Pak-Tab for me. The down side to the SAM is it is very hard to break in. I currently use the Pak Tab and love it. Lasts forever and does not curl.

Gets my vote too.  

Never wears out and shoots the same wet, dry, hot or cold.  You can customize for that prefect feel and release.

I use (for 30 years) the same Saunders plastic tab.  Can't find them anymore tho.

Too many choices  :)   I called Lancaster today and ordered the Cavalier Elite in cordovan.  I'll give it a go!

I picked up some split finger cordovan tabs off of a fellow tradganger, and I prefer no finger seperator. The Wilson style tab will work for me, but I like the feel of the string. The plain old tab is the best for me.

How long does it take to break in the saunders pac tab and the Skookum Cordovan Tab?  

I like the cordovan slickness.

I an still on the hunt for the right tab for me. I love my BW or Wilson tab, but I don't like the curl I get on the top layer.  It can take to much time to get on the string when hunting.

The skookum cordovan tab really surprised me on the very first shot - how quickly the string released, I guess. But after just a few shots one morning it started feeling really good.

i go for the widow palm tab-never in the way and always there when you need it.

I like thin tabs that allow me to feel the string.  I use a single thick layer of leather cut to what used  to be called a "Western tab" where there is a hole for the index finger and a bigger, oblong hole for both the middle and third fingers.

The Pak Tab is broke in when you get it. That's what makes it so great.

I have been using Black Widow palm tabs for 20+ years. I belive Neet makes them for BW. They are very good tabs. I like them for all the reasons that M Laughlin stated.

Yes, it's a very subjective thing. A tab that feels great to someone else may feel horrible to you. I had an easier time finding a bow that fit me well than a tab I liked.
