3 under shooters, which glove do you use?
« on: July 13, 2017, 07:56:00 PM »
I am curious as to which gloves you guys use for shooting 3 under.  I am going back to a glove and have only shot a tab since swapping to 3 under.  

I like a decent amount of finger protection, and would love it to be something that won't develop grooves, if possible.

I like 3 Rivers Dura glove. I tried American Leathers Kangaroo, but seem to come back to the dura-glove.
Never measure the mountain until you have reached the top, then you will see how low it is.

I shoot the BlackWidow DeerskIn glove mainly for more feel and adequate protection. But... I love their Black Widow Sticktite glove for protection, look, and absolute lock-in of the finger stalls. I'm sure I could get it to be my most used glove but I get closer to the face/sensitivity with the deerskin glove... Plenty of protection with the Deerskin at 53lbs, 27.625" draw on 54" BlackWidow KB three under. I'd definitely use the Sticktite for higher poundage or more protection. Incredible glove.

Funny you say that, that's the glove I used while shooting split.  I just got a new one in today.  It is a good glove for sure! It looks like they've changed a little since I used them last as well

Dura glove. Love the feel of the string with this glove and still get lots of finger protection.

When I used a glove, I used an E W Bateman cordovan tip glove.  I'm sure if I go back to a glove someday, I'll use the same glove. No grooves, good protection, slick cordovan.  I like to stretch fit a glove over my fingers, and it was a battle to stretch fit the Bateman glove, because it just didn't want to stretch. But after a few months, I finally got the fit I wanted.

If you're like me I've gotten use to the protection that a tab provides.

If you want protection you will have to go with somethin like the Black Widow Stick Tite.

The BW PDQ use to be thicker than the last 2 I've recieved.
I used a glove for 40 yrs but I very seldom use one now because I dont like having to use such a thick glove if I want the protection.
Daniel, a trick I have used is to glue some thin pieces of leather inside the finger stalls,I used Barge Cement. It does the trick...that way just  about any glove will work better for protection

I've shot a Damascus glove for years, both split finger and three under.  I just started shooting a Bearpaw from Kustom King with the cordura finger tips, still gives me a good feel of the string, and seems to be very durable so for.

Was using the Dura glove but changed over to the Beat Paw Speed glove due to its longer stalls.

The Dura glove for some reason shorthen their and with a deep hook the string wound up behind the stalls where sewn

Have been shooting a black widow three under tab lately, but just got an Everlasting tab and it is Nice!

I use A Dmascus glove and have for years. I have tried just about all of them but always go back to the Damascus.

I have shot a tab for the past 2 years and just can't shoot them as good as I would like.  I haven't shot them nearly as good as I shot my gloves.  I feel like I get a much better release with the tab, but I felt more consistent with a glove. Weird place to
Be.

If I will cut the tab down as much as I can get away with it helps with getting a feel for a conistent anchor on my face.
