"I might try one of the basic Hill gloves and see how that works. If I could get one that stays in place it would be my PERFECT glove, which I am still searching for.
Here is another tip assuming you have a pretty good fit to begin with. Melt pure beeswax and allow it to drip heavily into the stalls. Insert your finger while still hot and you will get a chinese finger cuff effect giving you the perfect fit.

Another idea is to take a full finger glove and cut the finger tips out of it. There is no back and forth slippage this way. I have done this for years and first learned of it from Bill Leslie. After you cut it is best to turn it inside out and re sew the ends to keep it from coming unraveled.

I have always cut the tips out of my fingers. I first done it on a Damascus glove and it worked great. I love that glove except for the fact that it is so thin that it doesn't give much protection.
Another slight problem I have is that when I release the string I will sometimes get a rake across my fingertips that is pretty uncomfortable.
I guess like many I am still searching for the perfect glove. Those tips on tightening up a Hill glove sound like something I would want to try. I might order one of the basic gloves and see how that goes.
