? about NEET archery products
« on: March 18, 2010, 07:23:00 PM »
Today I went to pick up a glove I had ordered from my local bow shop from NEET.
When I put it on my fingers I couldnt even get my fingers to the tips it was so tight.It was an XL and was loose at the top of the fingers but where the double leather was on the tips I couldn't get my finger in.I have 2 other NEET gloves that I bought 2 years(and they are perfect) ago and was wondering if the company changed.I don't want to order another if this is the quality I'm going to get.Any info would help.     :confused:

I don't know if anything has changed at NEET, but you may be able to salvage that glove.  Soak it in hot water and force it on when it's wet.  It will stretch some.  Wear it until it is dry "ish" and you might be good to go with it.  You can do it again if needed.

My bud at the shop said he would sell it on the rack as a medium.There was no way that this glove could stretch as far as I needed it.That was a thought.

Hmmm, most of the neet stuff is cordovan and it don't stretch hardly at all.  Having worked as a mechanic in a manufacturing environment for the last five years, my first thought is it got mismarked and/or put in the wrong package.  Always save your receipt eh?

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

Actually, I have found pouring rubbing alchol in Ill-fitting leather boots and wearing them until they dry works great for causing leather to "Form". It appears to do something allowing the leather to stretch and form during the drying period.

I was told about this years ago and doubted it.   :wavey:    :coffee:
