Goatskin: the Most Durable Shooting Glove Material?

[nineworlds9]

I love my American Leather bigshot glove, perfect for three under shooting and its very comfortable for me shooting up to a 73# bow.  Not ideal for split finger though, imho, the way they stitched the seams kinda interferes that type of position.

For cold weather I use the Alaskan Bowhunting fleece   with cordavon .I put a chemical warmer inside palm of the glove. This way I can keep the finger tips warm. On the bow hand I use a warmer glove. The fleece glove will not last many more seasons.

For me the Kuiu glove is too sticky for a good release. That's why I added nylon to the tips. First time I  put nylon on it was to thick so I replaced with thinner stuff.

Cold weather is tough ,fingers need feeling and protection.

Abe,
With my KUIU glove the stickiness on the three string fingers went away after shooting several hundred arrows.

I  had some problems with Alaska Bowhunting, sold everything I ever purchased from them, and no longer do  business with them.  Kind of sad because  they have some quality products.
