Point me to a 3 under tab
« on: March 16, 2009, 04:29:00 PM »
Can someone please point me in the direction of a 3 under hair or leather tab?  

I know a couple places where I can get one but I don't want to pay twice the amount of the actual product because of shipping.  

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

Leo

You can always cut your own from scrap leather. I picked up some from a local leather craft supply for $5.00 and cut a bunch of tabs from it, pretty simple to do! They work perfect for me and last a VERY long time!

Hey Fool, that's what I'm considering to do.  I've seen the one at 3R, but if I pay $9 for the tab I know they'll get me for about an extra $6 or so in shiping.

Whoops, $7 for shipping on something that weighs next to nothing and is smaller than my hand.  

Guess I'll be making one.

I really like Black Widow tabs. For the best shipping, and seeing as you live in the USA, you could just call them, and they are a small-enough operation to care-enough to ship it in an appropriate size.

I make my own from scrap leather.  I attach them to a ring I made from some thermoplastic splinting material I use at work.  They work great and are customized to my hand.

I have the BW 3 under in leather and hair. Both are good. But Ol' Buff makes a far better custom one, in my opinion.

I called Mr. Bateman and ordered mine from him.

The conversation was worth whatever it cost me.  I'm gonna call him back, soon and order a few more.

For what it's worth, Rod Jenkins shoots 3 under with a Cavalier split finger tab - he says (on Masters of the Barebow) that he likes the plate 'cause it gives him a consistent approach to the string.

I shoot a Cordovan 3 under tab from 3-rivers. I have tried most of them and this one is the one. They are $10.45 and well worth it. I shot a BW tab before I got the Cordovan and like it ok.

I know!! That's the problem! They're ripping me off with shipping.   I will call them as suggested and throw a fit.  Tazmanian devil type stuff.
