I would like to get a tab for the summer shooting. I like the glove for hunting season for the added warmth but I was wondering if anyone out there uses those jersey gloves under a tab during hunting season. I would like a high end tab but one that smooth and not leather. If I can't really come up with a tab I like, I'm going to the americans leather glove. whatch ya'll think.

Switching to a tab sure cleaned up my release a whole lot.
I use a W&W 360 and have been very happy with it. I would like to get a Cavalier tab next to see if they are as nice as everyone says.
I would stick with cordovan, nomatter what you choose. It wears like iron and only gets slicker with use.

Tab

Tab for me, been shooting one all my life. Afraid to switch now. However I can't shoot with a glove under mine. I keep my hand in hand muff when it's cold.
I am currently using a NEET tab with superleather, and the felt finger spacer. The tab is very durable but I don't get a good feel of the string.
Anyone ever use the expensive skookum tab. I wonder if it's worth the $$$?
Tryed on a demascus glove the other day and it felt flimsy. Couldn't help but think these things will come apart during the summer months with sweating.

Switched to tab about 1980. Seemed I was always needing glove off for somthing and had heard of release benefits with tab. Tried a few and settled on one(maybe same) as LCB describes. When put on it just felt good. Couple years later get a cordovan from Screaming Eagle (Brunner) and he was right, smooth, slick, no curl. I realy like it. For cold, I cut the 3 fingers tips off the jersy glove.

I used a tab for many years, but have switched to a glove a few years ago. I was always loosing my tabs. With the glove, if it's not on my hand, it is on my bow.

I would like to find out where I can get some info on the Cavalier Tab. I've been seeing where many mention them, but can't find out where to purchase one. thanks

I've used a Saunders tab for a very long time now and I'm older than dirt!

I use an Earl Bateman cordovan 3 under tab.
If it's really nippy out, I use the tab over a damascus deerskin glove under a fleece glove with three fingers cut out.

LCB, 3rivers now has the cavalier tabs as well as Lancasters. I prefer the Earl Bateman with finger seperator and made of cordovan.

My concern about using a tab is loss. I have enough problems remembering my Binos, shoes, wallet. I tried a tab and they sure seem to make for a snappy release but I figure if I can continue to improve with a glove I might as well keep to that. Also I am using one of the new Full shot gloves that covers my palm. I like the protection when I fall or crawl, I wear a light weight shotgunners glove on my bow hand for the same reason, seems when in the woods I like always having gloves on. JMHO
