Bow above 50# the buffalo crossover
Bows below 50, the kangaroo version of crossover. I don't like the nylon webbing on outside versions, but just a personal preference.

I have had the buffalo, Elk, and Kangaroo. My fav is the Kangaroo Crossover. No stretch, no stall turning, no string grooving. Have had mine through 2 summers now. I use it for 60#-45# bows.

Ive got the Kangaroo Krossover at the urging of people on here,, and the Buffalo Bigshot later. The Krossover is a decent glove, But I like the Buffalo Bigshot better, and prefer it because of the overlay design. I find the inserts of the Krossover to permanently take a bending form after a while. Also, the Krossover uses leather over the inserts, and after a while it begins to wear, regardless of what you may hear. Granted, it takes a lot of shooting to do that. However I now have more shots on the Buffalo Bigshot, and there is zero sign of wear or set in the glove or overlays. I use a deep hook with zero problems with either in that respect. Id love to trade off my Krossover, and replace it with a back up buffalo bigshot.

The " crossover " bison works great for me. In fact I purchased another for back up! By far the best glove I've owned.

I have had the big shot, crossover and krossover. May favorite is crossover. The big shot fingers seemed big with the overlays and could not get a repeatable comfortable anchor for me.

Don't know that I have preference. I have a big shot and a crossover. I shoot with them equally I think.

The big shot seems a little easier on my fingers.

I've got a bigshot buffalo that I like for my heavier bows. The only issue that I've had is that the tips tend to develop pretty deep grooves after a while. It hasn't seemed to affect my release to much though.

I have never had the pleasure to shoot a Buffalo Bigshot, but I'm very happy with the elk version.  Its by far the best glove I've used.

I have a couple of the elk bigshots and love them. I've been shooting some of them for a numbers of years and still going strong
