I shoot the Safari Tuff Tab. I like them a bunch and they seem to last a very long time. They come with a 5 year guarantee, mine has been going strong for over 3 years.... They do come in several sizes.   :thumbsup:

I have the same problem and I love the neet cordovan tab.  its is designed for split, but i use it for 3u.  

I can't stand a tab with any thick leather in the palm.

Exactly. I figure now when I find something I like I will get a lifetime supply.

Consider the Legacy 3-under.  It has a longer piece of leather for my middle finger, for more shooting comfort.

I have two Bateman 3-under tabs, and they worked well and are durable, but they left the tip of my middle finger (last 3/8"?) exposed, and I'd get a bowstring bone bruise on my middle finger after a long shooting session (yes, I'm keeping my elbow down).

The Legacy 3-Under is MUCH more comfortable to shoot. All smiles from my middle finger with using the Legacy.  I use "medium" size, but got the large (an experiment) and needed to trim/grind it down to have it fit "just right."  Easy peasy, and I'm happy with the result.

My next 3-under tab will be another Legacy, "medium" and not a Bateman, just due to the middle finger tip protection the Legacy design offers

You should check out Dan Toelke's tabs

Various bows, but if you see me shooting, it's probably a Toelke in my hand!

My favorite is the death adder tab but it is not made anymore, but like Steve O I have 4 of them so good for a long long time, still on the first after 3.5 years. Otherwise I like the bateman for price and durability. Have not had the good fortune to try the Jenkins but looks very nice.

I shoot split rather than 3 under, but I totally agree with the above. Been shooting a glove forever, but just went to a tab in the last month, and the transition was seamless.
