Alaska bowhunter supply cordovan tab

[AkDan]

Any chance someone has one?    I am hoping to get a tracing of one so i can make my own.  I managed to loose my last one and ABS hasn’t made them in years

AKDAN…

Looking for split finger or three under?  I know I have the 3 under still around here… think I sold all my split finger tabs…. Was my favorite tab for a long time!

Have you checked out Bateman?

I love the Bateman's and shoot them all the time now...

The Alaskan Bowhunting Supplies tabs were just one layer... only the cordovan leather... no backing...  I've not seen any Batemans like that... or any other tabs like them... ultra simple...  no threads to rot... nothing to break... about the only demise was losing one ;-)

Sorry AKD…

All of mine are 3 under….

I guess I went a little crazy and bought a few extra… I have 2 that are shot in and three backups that are still in the ABS packaging…

I’ve got several new large lefties and can loan ya one . I bought about 7-8 of em when they disc. them and sold at 1/2 price. But I’m sure that probably won’t work  these are by far my favorite tab

[twigflicker]

Ha!  Another hoarder… nice to meet you Mr. Lay

I did the exact same thing when I saw them closing them out…

I think he was just wanting a tracing to cut his own… could a fellow not just flip a lefty over… or am I making that too simple…

Screaming Eagle in Montana has excellent cordovan tabs i have been using for years. Maybe they would work for you.

I got a nice piece of genuine cordovan from Etsy. Large enough to make a half dozen tabs.
I just cut it with scissors. Nice, simple tab. No palm, plate no rivets, stitching or other crap. And it wears like iron. Actually gets better with use.

And there you go... I'm pretty sure they were the same thing...  I'd completely forgotten all about Screaming Eagle...

PS... Thanks Tom!

I looked on the current Screaming Eagle website and I don't see tabs. Seems like they are only selling tree stand related stuff.

Here's the link to what I bought. I'm not sure if Huntley Leather has any more but it's worth messaging Jordan and asking.

Ooops. My apologies for missing that. That's what I get for trying to do a search on a tiny phone screen without my cheater glasses.
