Suggestion on finger tab
« on: May 13, 2013, 10:32:00 PM »
Was playing around with a cheap old tab I had and saw some improvments switching from the glove.

All I know is I have a thinner one and a thicker one, the thicker one was way more comfortable, lol.


Prefer one made by a tradgang member, or at least USA made. Also, prefer split.

Thanks guys

Saunders Pak-Tab. I don't have a clue where it is made but I love it. It is broke in out of the box, waterproof, scent free, and really slick! And it comes with a bunch of "parts" so you can make it as thick or thin as you want it.

Black Widow tab made by Wilson.  Best tab I've used.  I trim mine to fit both my fingers as well as the split.  I'm still using the first one I got, have one trimmed and on standby and a brand new one still in the package.  I won't be without one.

E W Bateman Cordovan, slick, waterproof and indestructable. My wife would vote for the BW tab.

X3 on the Saunders Tab. I like it with no extra layers. They last until you lose them or the dog chews it up.

I've tried a bunch.  Cavalier Elite for me even though I shoot it 3-under.

I have used black widow, super archery mit, and bateman cordovan tab and prefer the bateman sold by 3Rivers above them all...though I keep a couple SAM for backups.

Neet cordovan for me. Keep a few scattered around like reading glasses. I don't care for the finger separators, metal backing or any of that other stuff. Just a good straightforward tab with second layer for thickening.

X4 I don't think they are all that thin, but I do have some variation in thickness in my three. I learned to like the thinnest one the best. Pack tab is unique and okay, but I have run through a few due to plastic splitting and layers breaking down our working loose due to enlarged holes and then there are the occasional lost screw parts if you don't keep an eye on that.  Black widow super leather is hard to beat for a heavy thick tab.
