Using a tab instead may help, and there are gloves known for a good release. Sending you a PM to discuss options.

There are many fine gloves available. While a glove in and of itself won't cure plucking (ask me how I know!), a glove that's not right for you will make it more of a problem.

As far as which one, if you tell us what you're looking for in a glove, we can narrow down some options for you.

Keep in mind that the Damascus glove is pretty much the thinnest one out there - going right to a very different style could take some getting used to. That Damascus gives you a lot of "string feel", some other gloves don't.
That said, I shot a Damascus a long time. Like that string feel, but wanted just a little more of a glove. After following glove threads a long while, I ended up getting a Kangaroo leather glove from Big Jim's. In a nutshell, it's a definite step up from the Damascus (and yes, I get a little better release with it; still very soft, thin, supple, excellent string feel (better than the D.), and a little better finger protection.

The Black Widow PDQ is a great glove at a great price.
